[wp-hackers] register_activation_hook and PHP closure

[Dion Hulse (dd32)]

The warning won't be generated from register_activation_hook(), or at
least, I don't expect it will be, as it's internally simply
add_action()

register_uninstall_hook() however does serialize things, and would
probably throw an error like that. as the "hook" needs to be stored in
the database for later usage..
Have a look at the docs of that one here:
