I was now searching for an error in my design for hours.... As a last try I removed the folder db in the quartus project folder, compiled again and -- voila, the design worked!
Weird!
BTW: I'm invoking Quartus in batch mode from a Makefile. Anyone had similar experiences?

Hi Martin,
This problem was reported by the Altera applications group on Monday this week and we will have a fix ready. This global patch which is undergoing testing will be made available by Friday noon and a link will also be posted here. This problem is seen if you are compiling a design which has encrypted IP. This affects Nios II designs and four of the communications cores. In the meantime delete the db directory. This problem only affects Quartus II 5.1. Earlier versions of Quartus are not afected.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may have caused.

Hi Subroto,
thanks for the reply. I've added a 'rm -r db' in my Makefile ;-) However, my design does not used any encrypted IP, just plain VHDL files.
