Great!

The following line has invalid html:

+				$warnings["backend_reference"] = 'The Reference Index table is empty which is likely the result of a recent TYPO3 upgrade. Please go to <a href="'.$url.'">Tools>DB Check</a> and update the reference index.';

Tools>DB Check should be Tools&lt;DB Check.

Another question (not tested, just by looking):

+				$url = 'sysext/lowlevel/dbint/index.php?&id=0&SET[function]=refindex';

This URL is relative to /typo3. Is it true for About module? I think it is executed from its own directory, isn't it? Install URL, for example, is different. 

Same for editing admin account.

Yes! Big +1 for this.

Using $GLOBALS['LANG']?
