Bug Type:         Bug
Bug description:String access to an expression gives parse error

Description:
------------
As documented, "accessing variables of other types [...] using [] or {}
silently returns NULL". Because of this it is necessary to cast an integer
to string before string access can be done. However, this results in a
parse error.

Test script:
---------------
$i = 123;

echo $i{1}; // -> empty (expected)
echo ((string)$i){1}; // -> parse error
