URL in custom field problem

I’ve developed a site which runs fine on other servers but on my client’s hosting server I noticed following weird behavior (everything else runs fine):

If I try to save article with an url in custom field (starting http://), it jumps to front-end 404 page (though browser url displays: siteurl/textpattern/index.php). Anything else (not starting http://) saves with no problem.

I’ve got following notices in diagnostics:

The following PHP functions (which may be necessary to run Textpattern) are disabled on your server: apache_child_terminate, apache_setenv, define_syslog_variables, escapeshellarg, escapeshellcmd, eval, fp, fput, ftp_connect, ftp_exec, ftp_get, ftp_login, ftp_nb_fput, ftp_put, ftp_raw, ftp_rawlist, highlight_file, ini_alter, ini_get_all, ini_restore, inject_code, mysql_pconnect, openlog, php_uname, phpAds_remoteInfo, phpAds_XmlRpc, phpAds_xmlrpcDecode, phpAds_xmlrpcEncode, posix_getpwuid, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_setuid, posix_setuid, posix_uname, proc_close, proc_get_status, proc_nice, proc_terminate, syslog, xmlrpc_entity_decode, allow_url_fopen, symlink ? 

Since the site runs fine except to this minor problem, and it says above functions MAY BE necessary, I was thinking if someone might be able to point out where the problem lies.

Also there is warning in diagnostics (twice):

Warning: php_uname() has been disabled for security reasons in siteurl/textpattern/include/txp_diag.php on line 521

Could this be something that will cause above or bigger problems?

I’ve installed lot of textpatterns over the years on different hosts, never experienced something like this though.
