panels plugin causes 'Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in sites/includes/theme.inc on line 1058' [#2044341]

The issue concerns the panels plugin in conjunction with the 'realname' module.

The author_pane.inc file on the panels plugin has a typo on the theme function that causes a fatal error. The problem is that the name of the module should be 'realname' it is instead 'username'.

I too just came across this fatal error:

Fatal error: Cannot use object of type stdClass as array in includes/theme.inc on line 1070

Just so others might understand where I came across the error, it is when I placed the Author Panel block into a custom page (can't remember if that's provided by Panels or ctools):
/admin/structure/pages/add

NOT a Panels Page at:
/node/add/panel
(though I haven't tested if that makes any difference)

I thought it had something maybe to do with the current user context being on both the custom Panel page and in the views I was using on the same page (not related to Author Pane but I had placed it in the custom Panel page too). But after disabling the author_pane block in the panel and testing it, I found the error to go away. Re-enabling the author_pane block in the panel made the WSOD fatal error come back.

I did not realize it had anything to do with the realname module, but I'll try out the patch

Testing...

It appears that the patch does indeed work. Reviewed & Tested to work on the 7.x-2.x-dev (2013-Sep-30) release!
