Comment (by chrishajer):

 Interesting, I just read this comment:
 http://bbpress.org/forums/topic/db-access-problem-in-the-first-
 installation-step?replies=10#post-11205

 Warning: mysqli_get_server_info() expects exactly 1 parameter, 0 given

 http://us.php.net/manual/en/function.mysqli-get-server-info.php

 Apparently, mysqli_get_server_info '''requires''' the parameter, where
 mysql_get_server_info does not.  So, I believe you're right Sam to require
 the $this->$dbhname (contradicting what I said earlier.)  Apparently when
 I was testing this, I had added that object first, then tried the mysqli
 change, so I had already done it, but was going off information I read for
 mysql_get_server_info.
