This isn't related to allow_call_time_pass_reference. It's a new notice
that came with PHP 4.4.0 to inform developers of possible incorrect
code. For instance the following will generate it:
function &$foo()
{
return null;
}
According to internals before 4.4.0 such methods caused the occasional
(almost impossible to track down) memory corruption bugs. You're only
relief is to tone down the error reporting level (Which will knock out
other notices during development but will be great for a production
server), or do as I did and install a custom error handler that filters
this notice specifically (I have to work with some ezproject code for a
client which is disgusting and is filled with all kinds of notices not
to mention on one page almost a thousand of this particular breed).
Cheers,
Rob.
