You can also get this issue when you do something as simple as having a messed up abstraction function and you end up passing an array to the bindValue() when it should be a string, as in:

$a = array(':slug','mickey1');
$st = $PDO->prepare($sSQL);
$st->bindValue(':slug',$a); // the bug!

In my case, I should have made $a as array(':slug' => 'mickey1') and should have iterated my array so that I could bindValue() by each string key of the associative array.
