According to the Siteground website, they offer PHP 5.0, 5.1, and 5.2. They say that you can choose which version you want. You should be able to contact them and ask for a later version. 5.1 should be fine, 5.2 better though.
Registration Validator 2 uses a different method for the StopForumSpam check (which is where this error is occurring), but RV1 won't be updated that way (at least, not by me). The error is caused by the use of the libxml_get_errors() function in RV1. RV2 doesn't use libxml anymore, it's only requirement is PHP5 (any version) with cURL.
