Setup: Latest CentralAuth trunk, MediaWiki 1.17 Final When accessing Special:GlobalGroupMembership, I get this error: PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function getGroup() on a non-object in /var/www/mywiki/includes/OutputPage.php on line 2707 I've been able to fix this, at least temporarily, by undoing the change in r83789.

This sounds like an incarnation of bug 29569 (calling addModuleStyles() on a nonexistent module causes a fatal) and the mediawiki.special module somehow not existing in 1.17 core while it's referred to in the 1.17 extensions.
Although it's annoying that it causes a fatal error instead of ignoring it / throwing an exception, it is still a CentralAuth issue that there's a reference to a module which doesn't exist in MediaWiki 1.17.
Setup: Latest CentralAuth trunk, MediaWiki 1.17 Final ^ Trunk extensions aren't expected to work with older releases
