the following exception happens when you have something like this(bad):

(ns runtime.util-test
(:use [midje.sweet :reload-all]))

as opposed to any of these(correct):

(ns runtime.util-test
(:use midje.sweet :reload-all))

(ns runtime.util-test
(:use [midje.sweet] :reload-all))

and the exception is:
Exception in thread "main" java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: No value supplied for key: true

Note that this is similar to the equally unhelpful message shown in http://dev.clojure.org/jira/browse/CLJ-1140 although that is a different root cause.

Probably best to enhance the `use` function to validate its arguments before trying to apply hash-map?
