TL 2013 pretest - biblatex and polyglossia incompatability?

[Rembrandt Wolpert]

Biblatex in connection with polyglossia fails in short working example
below with the message:

! Package biblatex Error: Patching 'babel' package failed.

Since I need both polyglossia and biblatex what can I do? -- Apart from
putting the old polyglossia (TL 2012) into my texmf-local (which makes
it work again as expected - not a long-term solution).

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Courier}

%% biblatex works fine with:
%\usepackage[english]{babel}

%% biblatex fails with:
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{english}

\usepackage[autostyle]{csquotes} % irrelevant at this stage

\usepackage[notes,backend=biber]{biblatex-chicago}
\bibliography{../book} %irrelevant - it fails even without citation


\begin{document}
Not even a sentence (no verb), without even a citation.
\end{document}


Thanks,
Rembrandt

Make a bug report here:

https://github.com/plk/biblatex/issues

with the following, much more minimal, complete example:

%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{polyglossia}
\setmainlanguage{english}
\usepackage{biblatex}
\begin{document}
Test
\end{document}
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

> Thanks,

You're welcome.
