Comment (by nacin):

 How is a SimpleXMLElement object making its way into object cache? It
 should not be allowed in postmeta, options, etc., as those all serialize
 (even going into cache). I imagine it would only occur when you are using
 your own cache bucket?

 Should we do a try/catch and fall back to print_r()? I'm fine with moving
 over to print_r() but it's probably even less of a decent representation
 of the approximate size in cache.
