It is a bug:

Trunk currently can't open compressed data files.

I have been looking at the bug recently, but don't immediatly spot what's 
wrong.

You can work around it by saving your data file uncompressed. For that, open 
it with 2.4.7, uncheck Edit->Preferences->General->Compress files and save 
your data file again.
