Why are you trying to run that script?

Minimal test case:

$dbr = wfGetDB( DB_SLAVE );
$res = $dbr->select( 'page', '*', array(), array( 'LIMIT' => 2 ) );
foreach ( $res as $row ) { $dbr->tableExists( 'foo' ); }

Error in fetchObject(): Table 'sandwiki.bw_foo' doesn't exist (localhost)

PS: Could the error message also include class name?

Why are you trying to run that script?

To fuzzy some messages in Freecol that hadn't been fuzzier when they should have been, so I sometimes run this script to have checks done on all translations.

The reason for this is because mysql_fetch_object() does not reset the error number when it is successful (blame MySQL, not PHP). Added a patch that only checks for certain errors that are expected from mysql_fetch_*
