If I take out the ampersand on line 51 of CI_Controller, then the error goes away, but what is triggering the error? I converted another site to V2.0 last night and it doesn't give the error.

Actually, I found that the error was being shown as a result of a custom error handler set to E_ALL | E_STRICT. Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought that in php5 everything is passed by reference automatically, eliminating the need to use the =&. Am I wrong? Should all =& be changed in Reactor?
