in a part of php.ini I've got this:
error_reporting = E_ALL & ~E_NOTICE
display_errors = Off

It's my point and I've got to add that I'm using PHP 5.02 under Windows XP SP2
Perhaps that helps a little bit.

BTW: The status isn't fixed, because it isn't fixed.
The status should be open, or something....?

The fixes you suggest do work for PHP 5, but they completely break xtemplate for PHP 4 users.

The short-term solution is to turn off these strict error messages. (See this issue.) A long-term solution is being discussed in the Make Drupal PHP 5 Compliant task... This suggestion looks particularly promising.

Marking this as a duplicate.

FYI: The reason we do not simply follow narres' suggestion, which fixes this problem for PHP5, is that changing var to private breaks the xtemplate engine for PHP4. We'd like to maintain backwards compatibility with PHP4, which still is used on many (probably most) shared hosts.
