I'm running Gentoo with php 7.1, and found the solution on the archlinux
forum.

See https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=222245

in /var/www/localhost/htdocs/mythweb/includes/utils.php lines 220-225:
 Change every instance of 'this' to 'that'.

The end result:

    function _or($that, $or_that, $gt = false) {
        if ($gt === true)
            return $that > 0 ? $that : $or_that;
        if (!empty($gt))
            return $that > $gt ? $that : $or_that;
        return $that ? $that : $or_that;
    }
