I went out to the author’s GitHub account and downloaded a zip of the latest, backed up my current version on my server, and dropped it into the plugins directory. This solved the problems that I have been seeing.
It would be awesome if this was updated through the WordPress updater, however if you are looking for a solution, this is probably the first thing you should try. The latest update is 4 months ago, as opposed to the official update which is a year ago.

It worked for me!
Thank you very much!
The version on my server was 2011.1019.
Now i have 2012.1128.
If the dev version from Github fixed this issue for you, then you’ll be glad to know that the changes made in the recent development-version upgrades are now available in an officially-packaged, just-released version at the WordPress Plugins repository:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/feedwordpress/
The newest version is 2012.1212. Let me know if it fixes the problem you’re encountering, or if there are any outstanding issues you’re still seeing after making the upgrade.
Thanks,
