[wp-testers] Call to undefined method WP_Roles::WP_Roles()

[Dion Hulse (dd32)]

The PHP4 style constructors were removed from the classes, as the php5
__construct() is used instead.

You should be able to safely remove this line:
$wp_roles->WP_Roles();
from the code, as it should not actually do anything. When $wp_roles is
instantated, that method (in previous versions) was called. If theres
something you're trying to work around, you should instead be calling
$wp_roles->_init();, but like i said, that shouldn't be needed at all.
