Moving to new server - I18n.php error in log

Moving a Gallery 3 installation to a new host. Got the files transferred and changed the config to point to the new DB. This appears in the log when accessing the site.

Here's the contents of the database.php
========================
<?php defined("SYSPATH") or die("No direct script access.");

/**
* @package Database
*
* Database connection settings, defined as arrays, or "groups". If no group
* name is used when loading the database library, the group named "default"
* will be used.
*
* Each group can be connected to independently, and multiple groups can be
* connected at once.
*
* Group Options:
* benchmark - Enable or disable database benchmarking
* persistent - Enable or disable a persistent connection
* connection - Array of connection specific parameters; alternatively,
* you can use a DSN though it is not as fast and certain
* characters could create problems (like an '@' character
* in a password):
* 'connection' => 'mysql://dbuser:secret@localhost/kohana'
* character_set - Database character set
* table_prefix - Database table prefix
* object - Enable or disable object results
* cache - Enable or disable query caching
* escape - Enable automatic query builder escaping
*/
$config['default'] = array(
'benchmark' => false,

System Information:
=========
Gallery version (not just "2"): 3.04
PHP version (e.g. 5.1.6): 5.2.17
PHPInfo Link (see FAQ): http://foresttheater.com/gallery3/phpinfo.php
Webserver (e.g. Apache 1.3.33): Apache ??? (server doesn't return version info)
Database (e.g. MySql 5.0.32): MYsql 5.5.23
Activated toolkits (e.g. NetPbm, GD): GD
Operating system (e.g. Linux): : Linux
Browser (e.g. Firefox 2.0): Any

I did see that post earlier and attempted the fix, to no avail. Actually, our PHP version is not > 5.4.x. That seems to be the main driver of the purpose of the git checkin. Also, our stack is different that the other posting.
