vBulletin 3.6.0 - 3.8.6 requires PHP 4.3.3 or greater and MySQL 4.0.16 or greater.
Downgrade PHP, but only to PHP 5.2.x or PHP 5.3.x
If you absolutely cannot use VB 3.8.8 beta and cannot get PHP 5.2.x or PHP 5.3.x see the patch announcement thread there is an option to manually install the JSON functions on older versions of PHP to make the patch compatible with older versions but this would be a last resort option.
Another option but not tested by me
You need to turn off strict errors in PHP. Remove E_STRICT from your php.ini file's error_reporting directive.
