Same issue here, still working on fixing it, I'm out of ideas though and waiting on a ticket response. The Admin area works fine, so I went a day thinking the upgrade went fine, when in reality my entire client area was down and caused a massive loss due to a weekend promotion.
I will now be checking every client function manually each update, even minor ones, from now on. More work, but seems to be a common issue with WHMCS.
The hotfix did not help.
Also, isn't this against their own instructions?

Special Note About Error Reporting Level
We recommend that you do _not_ change the $error_reporting_level within configuration.php or the corresponding PHP ini error_reporting directive at the environment level, during normal production or staging operation.
Specifying a more sensitive $error_reporting_level, which observes non-critical warnings and notices, may result in pre-mature exit and prevent normal production behavior from functioning properly.
