Research drops to zero bug

I'm a few hours into my first game after installing the 1.08 version (via Steam), and suddenly my total Research Points Available has dropped to zero. The individual planets still show they are generating the correct amount, but on the research screen it still says I have zero points to use. I've played a couple more turns since, and no matter what I do it stays on zero, so I guess my game is ruined (I hadn't saved yet, and I had just turned the Autosave Every Turn option on just before it happened - coincidence?; when I reload the saved game the research is still at zero). Wasn't this bug supposedly fixed?

Also another unrelated minor bug: when I create a Weapons Platform, if I click on the Auto Complete button, it puts Supply Storage and Ordinance Storage modules on the unit, which are not even in the Available Components list (presumably since they wouldn't have any function on a Weapons Platform, since they don't move and they use the Ordinance directly from the planet they are sitting on).
