Taking out pass by reference warning

[darkfate]

I saw the thing on the wp-hackers list, but I figured I'd make a trac ticket. These code standards warnings are annoying. I know you can turn them off, but I think it is better not to pass by reference since it's deprecated.

I'm just wondering why we really need it. We I take out all the pass by reference calls in wp-settings.php it seems to work...

I've not been able to replicate this using trunk and php5. I've commented out the

allow_call_time_pass_reference = On

line in my php.ini but still don't get the error. Any pointers for me?

I haven't seen any lately. Resolving as fixed. Give specific warnings if still a problem.
