As it turns out i ran into the same issue with the 1.0 ide and ended up updating it myself.
I ran the examples and they seem to work just fine.
i do not know if you already updated the code or not but here is the a copy of the files i updated.
The example codes remains unchanged but is now in an ino file.

Your orig lib and examples helped me understand how to get this IC up and running for my datalogger.
I have found a few of your sketches to be rather helpful.
Thank you
