Dropping DatastoreOptions.defaultInstance().service() into a simple main() method will yield the error. I'm on 0.1.4. Inside class instance methods it's working fine. I'm running outside of App Engine.

Sorry I've got an issue on my machine where multiple libraries are using the same authentication path. As I pin this one down further I may repost.
