Odd problem I got when using beta2 on Drupal 5.5 - every page showed an Illegal offset type error (actually 3 of them) at lines 162, 164 and 170. An error in menu.inc at line 280 also appeared for some reason. The offset type errors in the module are due to the use of [$mid]. The really odd thing is that in Drupal 5.3, it worked fine. If I wrap each $mid like so: '$mid', the errors go away, except for the menu.inc error, which is always there.
Everything still works fine - moving menus, renaming, etc. So its obviously not serious. Its not really a module I'd keep on a live site, so I can live with the errors during setup, but it would be nice to have no errors :)
This is an awesome module and something like this really needs to be in core. Great work!

+1 exactly the same errors. Please fix.
Thanks for the great module.

I'm not sure if this is the best place to put this comment, but I had a similar error when developing a custom theme and overriding the theme_menu_item_link() function. I kept on getting "Illegal offset type" warnings for menu.inc, line 280.
I tried the suggestion above to put the "$mid" variable in quote marks, and that, for whatever reason, caused them to go away. I still have no idea what it all meant. =)

Apparently, the $menu array needs $mid to be a string to be used as a key.
Just add:
$mid = strval($mid);below line 160:
function qam_admin_menu( $mid ) {and all errors will be gone.
