You have a broken PHP configuration. Please unbreak your configuration and try again.

Created attachment 4084 [details] proposed patch to prevent the warnings from being shown Why are these warnings a sign of a broken PHP configuration? I don't think that you can rely on the user having access to /usr/bin/, see for example shared hosting environments. I have attached a patch for this problem that should make the warnings disappear.
Fixed in r25599.
