There are a lot of places where PHP 5.4 seems a lot stricter than earlier versions. Personally, I see this as a good thing — it's exposing places where our API design is quite ambiguous (and could potentially have undefined behaviour).
There'll be plenty more changes like this, but this change set got the major screens functioning.
These changes have not been tested for backwards compatibility with PHP 5.3, so please don't merge until this has been confirmed.
Partially addresses #1041.
