Comment(by miqrogroove):

 XMB had this same problem a couple years ago.  The authors had error-
 controlled all of the MySQL function calls because they didn't know how to
 make them behave in a useful manner in debug mode.  It had to be PHP 4
 compatible, so all I did was wrap each function with a custom error
 handler.  In this case it only writes to the system log and throws a
 generic 500 message, but that part is easily customized.
