Writing a module that send a message like this fails because line 63 of messagelib.php doesn't recognise the userid which comes in as a string.

$eventdata = new stdClass();

$eventdata->component = 'mod_coursework';

$eventdata->name = 'deadlinechanged';

$eventdata->userfrom = $USER;

// $dbrecord is from a standard $DB->get_record() call

$eventdata->userto = $dbrecord->studentid;

// etc

message_send($eventdata);
