Are you sure there is not caused by some "echo" debugging statement you 
left in the code, or some misplaced blank line outside of the PHP tags?
Also, if you comment out the calling of PMA_Message, you get rid of the 
warnings?

The strange characters will disappear when your warnings disappear.

Finally, does your code in branch/gsoc/derek produce this behavior?
