solo.clickOnText does not work on 4.0.1

[GoogleCodeExporter]

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. run a script with solo.clickOnText("Aanmelden"); on a 2.2.1 device (Samsung 
Galaxy S)
2. run exactly the same script on a Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0
3.

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
I expect the scripts to do exactly the same on these devices, and not a crash 
on the Nexus

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
Robotium 3.1
OS 2.2.1
OS 4.0.1

Please provide any additional information below.

I have script which runs fine on a Galaxy S, but crashes almost immediately 
when it arrives at a clickOnText statement. Crashlog below:

• Merged into: #127

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Are you sure you are using Robotium 3.1? This is an issue that we had before 
the 2.5 release (which did not support honeycomb)

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Please use Robotium 3.1.

• Changed state: Duplicate

[GoogleCodeExporter]

When I right click on the project, select properties, Java Build Path, 
Libraries, I see robotium-solo-3.1.jar

Are there any other places I should check? Is there any way to have Robotium 
itself tell me its version? Something like solo.getVersion?

No, there is no getVersion(). Please download 3.1 at the bottom of the 
following page:

That's where I got it: When I right click on the project, select properties, 
Java Build Path, Libraries, I see robotium-solo-3.1.jar
