I would guess from the error that its simply because in php7, class constructors must be called "__construct" and not the actual class name.
All the vB classes were updated in 4.2.5 to comply with this requirement.
Line 14 is probably calling vB_HumanVerify_Abstract(<something>), rather than __construct(<something>).
Out of curiosity, why doesn't vBulletin integrate reCAPTCHA 2?
I am pretty certain this is standard now on at least XenForo. Honestly, I'm starting to lean more and more towards moving us to XenForo because it provides a more seamless experience. I don't expect that out of vBulletin 4 - I would out of vBulletin 5 but it doesn't however, what I would expect is that vBulletin 4 which is clearly still being supported (likely because a lot of boards are still sticking to 4 versus 5) to support modern functionality like reCAPTCHA 2 found on other forum software from free to paid as standard features.
I don't know if you all are taking feature requests for vBulletin 4 still?Comment

No new features will be added to vBulletin 4. New features go into vBulletin 5.
The new ReCaptcha has just been added to vB5.MARK.B

There is a mod that bring Repatcha 2 to VB 4.x - http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=315960Comment

What's the interesting part (I know vB doesn't provide modification support) is that for us at least, we're running vBulletin 4.2.5 on PHP 5.6 still (our site isn't ready to transition to PHP 7 yet). It's quite odd for something that worked in PHP 5.5 to not work in PHP 5.6 (I can't think of a script which has ever had that problem).
It doesnt matter if you are actually running 425 on php7 or 5.6 or 5.5, the changes have been made, so the mod wont run without itself being updated.

I upgraded to vBulletin 4.2.5 Alpha 3 and my external php script failed to get the vbulletin object.
PHP Code:define('VB_AREA', 'External');
define('CWD', $vb->path);
$dir = getcwd();
chdir(CWD);
require_once(CWD . "/includes/init.php");
error.log message:
[Wed Oct 05 11:07:28 2016] [error] [client IP] PHP Fatal error: Call to a member function clean_array_gpc() on a non-object in /var/www/vbulletin/includes/class_bootstrap.php on line 127, referer: http://www.internet.de/
PHP Version is 5.5.30 (Debian). Vbulletin 4.2.1 was running without any problems.
best regards

I ran into a second problem. After upgrading the forum i can't view any thread, there was an error with datastore cache (vb_datastore table) in the smiliecache line:
a:300:{i:372;a:8:{s:8:"smilieid";s:3:"372";s:5:"title";s:11:"Deutschland";s:10:"smilietext ";s:19:":torfürdeutschland:"
All smilietext fields were wrong (colon and quotes were twisted). I fixed this within tools.php and "Bitfiled Cache" update.
The upgrade seemed to finish without any problems. Maybe the upgrade routine still needs some polishing.
best regards

Any idea on when this release will be considered beta. I want to make sure it is safe for production.Comment

Waiting for the beta so I can finally start using PHP 7 with vB4.

Fresh install of 4.2.5 alpha 3 on my new nginx/php7 server seems to work fine.
Moving my current forum over doesn't:
