Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class OAuthException in /[public root directory snipped for safety]/library/vendors/oauth/OAuth.php on line 8
Happens on both Chrome Stable and Internet Explorer 9 Beta
PHP 5.2.15, MySQL 5.1.52

I’m not sure the root of this problem, but a quick-and-dirty fix would be to make the following change:

library/vendors/oauth/OAuth.php

if (!class_exists('OAuthException')) {
  class OAuthException extends Exception {
    // pass
  }
}

yes that is quick and definitely dirty, don't do it. This is merely asking the program not to check but will cause more problems.
