I should have checked at what the cisco saved before sending the email :-)

When you enter "set community" the cisco silently ignores it so the 
route-map will have the match statement but no action statement (if 
all you were trying to do is clear the community). This may or may 
not be another IOS bug but it certainly isn't what is defined by the 
policy fragment.
