Cannot create a launch configuration in region us-west-1 in boto 2.0b4

What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create an AMI
2. Instantiate a LaunchConfiguration object
>>> lc = LaunchConfiguration(conn, '%s_%s' % (self.group, self.image),
...         self.image, instance_type=self.size)
3. Try to save it to the server
>>> conn.create_launch_configuration(lc)

What is the expected output?

I expect not to get an exception and to have the LaunchConfiguration object 
updated to reflect its status.

Actual output:

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "/opt/printra/bin/awstool", line 1407, in ?
