This is a mystery so far. This error message does not seem to exist in the
PhpWiki source code, so it might be coming from PHP itself. I'm still
looking.

I should have mentioned earlier (and I believe this is in the INSTALL
notes) that not all the features are implemented in the DBM version of
PhpWiki. The related links features are based on SQL queries that we did
not duplicate in 1.2. A user sent a patch some time ago but I never got it
to work for me.
