Error "Secuencia de control no definida. \biburlsetup ->\Urlmuskip" al compilar con biblatex

Aquí está el ejemplo mínimo fallido.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{biblatex}
\begin{document}
Here's a citation \cite{Quine:1948}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}

@article{Quine:1948,
    Author = {Willard V. Quine},
    Journal = {The Review of Metaphysics},
    Month = {September},
    Number = {5},
    Pages = {21--38},
    Title = {On What There Is},
    Volume = {2},
    Year = {1948},
}

Cuando compilo esto obtengo,

Estoy usando biblatex 2.8a. El único otro error que detecto en el archivo de registro es:

Puede encontrar la fuente de su problema en esta parte del logarchivo:

(/usr/local/texlive/2013/../texmf-local/tex/latex/html/url.sty
Package: url 1999/03/02  ver 1.4  Verb mode for urls, email addresses, and file
 names
)

Este es un paquete falso url.styque pertenece a un paquete obsoleto y obsoleto; Mi sugerencia es que ejecutes los siguientes comandos desde una terminal:

sudo rm -fr /usr/local/texlive/2013/../texmf-local/tex/latex/html
sudo mktexlsr

para deshacerse del paquete inútil.

Esto compila:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{biblatex}   %% backend is default i.e. biber. If you want bibtex put [backend=bibtex] as the option
\usepackage{filecontents}
\begin{filecontents*}{mybib.bib}
  @article{Quine:1948,
    Author = {Willard V. Quine},
    Journal = {The Review of Metaphysics},
    Month = {September},
    Number = {5},
    Pages = {21--38},
    Title = {On What There Is},
    Volume = {2},
    Year = {1948},
}
\end{filecontents*}
\addbibresource{mybib.bib}     %% <--- you missed this
\begin{document}
Here's a citation \cite{Quine:1948}.
\printbibliography
\end{document}

Debes compilar con pdflatex biber pdflatexsecuencia. Dado que no se especifica ningún backend para biblatex, biberse utiliza el backend predeterminado. Si quieres usar bibtex(lo cual dudo que estés usando), usa \usepackage[backend=bibtex]{biblatex}.

También te perdiste \addbibresource{mybib.bib}tu código.
