Bug description:Literal empty array returns NULL.
Description:
------------
For some reason I cannot figure out, array() doesn't give me an empty array
anymore but NULL.
(References are used for good reasons, btw.)
Test script:
---------------
function &foo_to_array (&$x)
{
$array_to_return = array (); // Works the first couple of times, then
NULLs.
// add foo elements to array
return $array_to_return;
}
Introducing some wrapper doesn't help either -- an array is actually
created but NULL is returned anyway:
function make_array ()
{
return array ();
}
