PHP 4 and PHP 5 handle objects as function parameters differently. Mediawiki now considers PHP 5.0 or later as a prerequisite (5.1 or later recommended). The warning you quote is a plausible consequence of using PHP 4 under certain circumstances, so that is the first thing I would check.
Right, I'll see if I can get a hold of the guy again. Thanks for that.
Is there a notable difference between passing the parser object by reference rather than as a value in this case though? I mean, if I can support PHP4 with my extension with out any (notable) differences I could just as easily pass the object as a value instead. I don't notice an difference in performance when I try it...

There's no point in targeting PHP4. Mediawiki doesn't support it anymore.
