There's a new version 0.91a, as well as a patch for it (separate downloads). One of the fixes is MDL7 related.

There's also been a nice fragMotion plugin released called SkeleTools. It works in conjunction with the BVH files you can but at TrueBones:

SkeleGen: Creates a base skeleton, using the naming convention found in the Milkbones animations, allowing any Milkbone animation to easily be merged. Click and drag in the front view ( Currently: If created in other views makes a really flat useless skeleton!) to create the skeleton, sized to the area dragged.
Here's a free BVH editing tool that can be used with the TrueBones motions, too:

- Convert many types of bvh files to be Second Life compatible.
- Add, remove and rename joints.
- Make adjustments to any motion channels across all frames at once.
- Make adjustments to the joint offsets (i.e. skeletal structure)
- Zero out any motion channel (e.g. to keep the figure from 'wandering off' from the origin)
- Trim off frames from the front and back of the file (to create a loop-able animation)
- 'Knit' together the start and end frames for smoother looping. (Uses linear interpolation only)
- Set a T-pose for the first frame (for Second Life compatibility)
- Adjust the frame time to speed up or slow down the animation.
- See graphically how the joint structure and motion data work together.
- Quickly and easily see which axis the arms are aligned on.
- Open and view many other bvh file variants.
Finally, here's what the fragMotion sprite creator looks like:

...and here's what I made (based off the settings in the image above except I changed it from individual files to single row):
