Comment (by pento):

 Thinking about it some more, I don't think this is the correct fix for
 this bug.

 The problem is that `sanitize_option()` is calling
 `$wpdb->strip_invalid_text_for_column()`, with `$wpdb->options` as the
 table name. `WP_Error` is being returned because the table can't be found.

 So, why is it that `$wpdb->options` can't be found? Is it set to the
 incorrect value, or can the table not be accessed?

 The options are being inserted when `install_blog()` calls
 `populate_options()`, but the call in `install_blog()` happens after the
 `switch_to_blog()` in `wpmu_create_blog()`, so `$wpdb->options` should
 have the correct table name.

 We need to be able to reproduce this bug to learn more.
