Bug description:  Un expexted result of empty string key of array

Description:

due to this line of php manual:
"Using the empty string as a key will create (or overwrite) a key 
with the empty string and its value;"
but empty string key will work.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$test = array('zero' => 'php.net', '' => 'php.net', "" => 'php.net' );

//test
echo $test['zero']."\n<br />"; //output: php.net
echo $test['']."\n<br />";      //output: php.net
echo $test[""]."\n<br />";     //output: php.net

foreach ($test as $key => $value ){
        echo "\$key = $key and \$value = $value \n<br />";
}
//out put
/*
$key = zero and $value = php.net 
$key = and $value = php.net
*/
?>

Expected result:
----------------
php.net



php.net






Actual result:
--------------
php.net
php.net
php.net

php.net
php.net
