I’ve updated a couple of sites to 3.8 so far and haven’t seen that problem.
If you’re getting a purely white screen, you need to chagne this in your wp-config.php
file to see what the error is:
define('WP_DEBUG', true);
That will let the errors show, and you’ll know what the problem actually is.
Rememeber to change it back to true
when you’ve got it sorted out.
Sorry should have been more clear. I updated to 3.8 to see if I could fix it. Unfortunately, it did not fix it so I can not blame 3.8. This is a new issue to her site, but nothing big had changed recently that would have caused it. I will try your suggestion and get back to you!

looked at the listed files but it seems that those are just either showing where that particular call was generated or nothing that i can currently make sense of.
