I'm not a cecilia user but apparently changing the version detection regex 
(csound4 used to output Version 4.x while csound5 outputs version 5.x) fixes 
this issue. This is fixed on line 189 of libs/prefs.tcl from cecilia 2.0.5.
Wether this just delays the problem instead of fixing it, I don't know.
