Manipulation of parameters that don't go through some validation as part of parsing (e.g. most strings)
is not supported in 5.0 and 5.2. The exceptions are data and template IF datapattern and templatepattern
are set. I've realized this change is probably too limiting and intended to remedy for 5.4. Look for an RFC
on the topic soon.

hmm, u might also refer to the 5.0 migration guide, in case it helps 
you: 
http://trac.osgeo.org/mapserver/browser/branches/branch-5-0/mapserver/MIGRATION_GUIDE.TXT

I have also seen a variation of this error:
