Blog module conflicts with other URL routes beginning with "blog/" [#1160926]

Used Menu token on a couple menu items, specifically blog/[current-user:uid] to view the current users blog posts. I also use a Panel for the blog node which requires me to use context to place a proper breadcrumb on the panel display.

If I setup a context to look for a path and then breadcrumb using the menu item a 'menu token' is active in, the breadcrumb never displays. If I point the context reaction to a static menu item (tokens not active) it works fine and displays my crumb.

This is the error showing in my logs when I try to visit my blog panel page with the context for the breadcrumb pointing to a menu token active menu item:
Notice: Undefined index: und in ctools_entity_from_field_context() (line 91 of /var/www/MYSITE/sites/all/modules/ctools/plugins/relationships/entity_from_field.inc).

Any help or pointer to a fix would be appreciated! Great module!!!

Another in the log just previous to that:

Notice: Trying to get property of non-object in blog_menu_local_tasks_alter() (line 154 of /var/www/MYSITE/modules/blog/blog.module).

FWIW, I have the same issue with Views in D7 when using a token to override a view title and breadcrumb, where the token is derived from a contextual filter (URL argument) and represents the content author's uid. In my case, the token is inserted correctly, but I encounter a notice identical to that quoted here (in comment #1)...

I had the same problem after installing the Token module. This is a definite bug in the blog.module file, but it is easily fixed following these directions:

1. Go to the file blog.module and find the line (154 or 155) in the function blog_menu_local_tasks_alter().
2. The line should be:
elseif ($root_path == 'blog/%' && $router_item['page_arguments'][0]->uid == $user->uid) {
3. Change it to:

  elseif ($root_path == 'blog/%' && isset($router_item['page_arguments'][0]->uid) && $router_item['page_arguments'][0]->uid == $user->uid) {

4. The warning is now fixed.

Why is this happening?
Tokens changed the property object (array in this case) $router_item['page_arguments'].
It no longer holds the user's uid at location 0, so the value $router_item['page_arguments'][0]->uid is NULL.

This issue still persists in the latest version 7.35-dev.

The fix in #3 by lOggOl worked.

Why hasn't this been fixed in the release yet ?
