I’m getting the same error when backing up to a folder and SugarSync. The error occurs throughout the log. Here’s an excerpt showing the first occurrence:
[03-May-2013 07:27:13] Database dump done!

@jplus2 Thanks, issue filed.
Chad, can you do me a favor and post what the tooltip says when you place your cursor over the date in the log? If you can’t get a hold of the actual text with copy/paste, a screenshot via Droplr or Imgurl would do just fine. Thank you!
Here’s the title attribute for the first occurrence of the STRICT NOTICE: is_a(): Deprecated.. Let me know if you need anything else.

Thanks Chad! We’ll come back here as soon as there’s a fix.
Finally, it looks like this is not a plugin support issue, but an issue with PHP lower than 5.3. See this thread in Trac. is_a() has been un-deprecated in PHP 5.3.
