This is NOT good.

May I suggest removing the @ symbol from dl.

Either that, or make sure that displayError actually does something in config.inc.php

Nothing worse than trying to debug a blank screen.

  Actually, the reason why displayError does nothing is because dl() dies a "fatal" death in some cases and script execution stops then and there. This is no screen output (as long as @ is in place).
  
  You NEED to keep displaying fatal errors. If you want to suppress WARNINGS/NOTICES then [temporarily] modify error_reporting
  
  $oldLevel = error_reporting(E_ERROR); // suspend fluff
  // insert dangerous statement here
  error_reporting($oldLevel); // put it back
