motd+shell default window not working after upgrade to 2.78

Ubuntu 9.10
Screen version 4.00.03jw4 (FAU) 2-May-06
byobu version 2.78

I have added the ppa to my apt-get list so I assume that the latest upgrade came from there, this week.

I have the following in ~/.byobu/windows:
screen -t top 7 top
screen -t log 8 watch -n 10 tail -n 7 /var/log/syslog /var/log/auth.log /var/log/dmesg /var/log/messages
screen -t mem 9 watch -n 30 "df -h; echo ""; free -mt"
screen -t shell 1
screen -t shell 0 motd+shell

When byobu tries to do the last one I get an error message at the bottom that is too quick to read.
If I try screen -t shell 2 motd+shell I get "Cannot exec 'motd+shell': no such file or directory" I am not
sure where the script was to begin with but it seems to be missing now.
