Unfortunately, Shawn, the author and only maintainer of DWT, apparently has left it alone for a bit. The problem you are having 
is that it currently uses a variable named "scope" which has recently become a reserved word. If you do a search and replace to 
get rid of the offending variable name, you should be able to compile fine.
