Distiller: PDFX4 2008.joboptions bug?

I newly installed Acrobat 9 Pro Extended (I had no previous version). When starting up Distiller, I get an error message:

Adobe PostScript software version: 3018.101
Adobe PDF Settings file read error in PDFX4 2008.joboptions:
/CheckCompliance out of range

A quick web search shows that this is not a new problem. Some say that Distiller is not able to create PDF/X4 files and that the error is thus a bug in Distiller itself. Is that true? (I can't find a joboptions file of that name in my system ...)

Do I need to do anything about it or can I just leave it?

My Product Information:
Acrobat Pro Extended 9.1, Windows

Try changing your PDF joboption file to something other than PDFX4 2008. Distiller 9.0 does not support PDF/X4. It was probably installed with CS3/CS4.
