 * I get the following debug messages upon activation of Genesis Tabs Plugin:
 *     ```

 * When PHP5.4 or higher has the strict warnings flag turned on it gives warnings
   for usage that was deprecated (but still works) in 5.4.
 * Can you ask your host about turning strict standard warnings off?
