A client of mine just upgraded to the latest snapshot of PHP 5.0.5-dev
and started getting errors when file_check_directory() is called:


Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in
c:\drupal\modules\system.module on line 653


This patch fixes the problem by assigning the values to variables
before passing them to file_check_directory().


Thanks.


(BTW: I'm no longer on on drupal-devel due to time constraints.)

Patch still applies and does not cause any problems with PHP 4. I am
unable to test on PHP 5.

Confirmed, 5.0.5 final causes this fatal error: Fatal error: Only
variables can be passed by reference in \drupal\modules\user.module on
line 1366


Rerolled patch against latest HEAD. system.module no longer needs to be
updated, only user.module does.
