Bug description:Third argument passed to array_reduce turned into return value

Description:
------------
When array_reduce is called with an object as the third argument, the
variable 
passed to said third argument will turn into the result of the
array_reduce() 
call. It feels like the object getting passed into array_reduce is not
being 
cloned and is being modified in place. Since all objects are passed as a
reference 
it changes the "$initial" variable in the scope where array_reduce was
called.

So either documentation needs to be updated that says that $initial gets
set to 
the return value when it is an object or this shouldn't happen to begin
with as it 
appears that $initial should remain immutable for the duration of the 
array_reduce() call.

Test script:
---------------
$array = (object)Array('foo', 'baraz');
$initial = (object)Array('count' => 0, 'maxlen' => 0);
$output = array_reduce($array, function(&$d, $item) {
    if($d->maxlen < strlen($d)) { $d->maxlen = strlen($d); }
    $d->count++;
    return $d;
}
print_r($output);
print_r($initial);

Expected result:
----------------
~$ php test.php
stdClass Object
(
    [count] => 0
    [maxlen] => 0
)
stdClass Object
(
    [count] => 2
    [maxlen] => 5
)

Actual result:
--------------
~$ php test.php
stdClass Object
(
    [count] => 2
    [maxlen] => 5
)
stdClass Object
(
    [count] => 2
    [maxlen] => 5
)
