Comment (by bjornjohansen):

 The same notice will show up in other places as well, due to missing
 is_wp_error() checks. Today I got it while using get_terms with
 'hide_empty' => false and all the terms in the taxonomy were empty (will
 create separate ticket for that).

 I suggest we do as Brian is proposing: Fix the getter and move the missing
 is_wp_error() checks to separate tickets (even though the cases might
 never be discovered as soon as the getter is fixed).
