Yeah.  It looked to me like whoever wrote the original array.c code
just forgot something when writing the code, because it's just #shift
that has the problem.

This bug was fixed, but not until 1.8.6.  I know it is fixed as of at
least the last couple of patch releases.  I am unsure if it was fixed
in the original 1.8.6 release, however.
