Comment (by hmabpera):

 Thanks for the update.  I do appreciate your hanging in here with this for
 us.
 Am I correct in thinking that this problem is limited to the admin widget
 area?
 I'll check back with you in the morning.


 Replying to [comment:22 westonruter]:
 > @hmabpera you don't need to supply info from the PHP error log now. I
 was able to reproduce the problem and it is in the Simple Access Control
 plugin. It is not properly extending the Text widget and this is the
 reason for the error. I'm working on a workaround plugin to make the
 plugin do the right thing.

 for widgets that extend `WP_Widget_Text`, so even if the Simple Access
 Control extended the Text widget properly, there would still be an issue.
 This may be what is reported in #41536 as well.
