I don't know if this is the case for you, but I've seen this on a website after an upgrade.
The constants are actually defined in Mage_Customer_Model_Address_Abstract but only in newer versions.
In my case, the previous dev, copied the Mage_Customer_Model_Address_Abstract class to the local folder (for some changes), and after the upgrade, that class was still used and it did not contain the constants TYPE_BILLING and TYPE_SHIPPING.

What I'm trying to say is investigate the local folder for things that might affect the addresses.
