Aaron, did you take a look at the 4.0 Migration Guide?  A lot changed 
between 3.x and 4.x.  Read through 
http://mapserver.gis.umn.edu/cgi-bin/wiki.pl?MigrationGuide .

For example,

         $image_out = $image->saveImage('test',MS_PNG,0,0,0);
     is now implemented as
         $image_out = $image->saveImage('test')

Something like that could be causing your current error.
