Lesscss > bootstrap's darken() and lighten() don't compile

My Less files aren't compiling as they should. I'm using the Bootstrap less files, most recent ones.

It looks like the less-files are failing because of the darken() and lighten() classes.

The error is:

lessc fatal error: expected color value: failed at background-color: darken(@inputBackground, 1%); /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/foobar/application/less/forms.less on line 195

When I go to that line, I find the darken() of lighten(), remove that and the error is gone. But a new error appears, also a line with the darken() of lighten() class. Strange, right, or isn't it? Is there a fix someone knows about? Because I don't wanna remove the lighten() and darken() everywhere, they're the nicest functions in Bootstrap less!

Saved the files to UTF8 without BOM already in SublimeText2

Edit: strange, it works when it's on my NAS. Not local on my MacBook.. Is it a OSX issue?

My problems were solved once I changed the order of less file @import rules. The colour definition should be parsed before darken() is called.
