Comment:

 I think that I now know what was causing this. A (phantom?) $page object
 was being fed to the do_meta_boxes function in the following line of edit-
 page-form.php:

 $side_meta_boxes = do_meta_boxes('page', 'side', $page);

 It should have been fed $post. I am attaching a new patch that supercedes
 the earlier one.
