What does this PHP script output on your box?
<?php
echo ini_get('allow_call_time_pass_reference');
?>

It's supposed to be a blank file on the main eventum directory, which
the installation procedure will write to.
You have a good point though, we should specifically say where the file
should go, and that a blank file is fine.

The error messages are helpful, and the installation procedure is very
complete and easy to use, much more than other tools that you may find.
If you think that these details are that important and that Eventum is a
lot of hassle because of them, then maybe this is not the tool for you.
We will improve on this for our next release regardless of your lack of
tact.
