non, really. It's just that the code will become much bigger to do the
copying :)

Functions should never ever modify the input array unless designed to
do so. According to documentation, preg_grep() is not supposed to modify
the input array. So it's a bug, not BC. What exactly is the usage case
where it should modify input array?

I don't really know what to do with this..
While I agree it shouldn't modify the original array, changing the
behavior would break BC.. Any opinions about this?

sure, internally it'll has to be converted, but i see no reason for a
change of the input array. thus preg_grep should work with a copy of the
input array...

Well, preg_grep() != in_array()...
PHP obviously should convert the values to string to be used in regex
matching. Hence, i think that it should returns the string that was
matched.
Anyway, i'll assign to the maintainer to solve this issue.
Thanks.

sorry, but did you even take a look at the samples? preg_grep is a
SEARCH function, why should it change the INPUT array?
