Older versions of PHP 4 would automatically (and silently)
convert non-array values into arrays if passed to array_merge.
PHP 5 doesn't do that -- it generates the error message instead.

Programmers in PHP 4 could therefore call array_merge without
having to worry if the arguments were arrays (or even initialized), 
but in PHP 5 there must be an explicit cast to make sure the 
elements are arrays.  I suspect that sectionedit.php needs to
have the cast added somewhere.

It could also be a problem with your PHP 5 installation.
