Bug description:Attaching a variable to an array within the return construct 
doesn't work

Description:
------------
If you try within a return construct to attach a variable to an array, the
array will be overwriten by the value you tried to attach to it. Because
the following examples work, it should also work with test script due to
consistency.

$ php -r 'function foo() { $intNumber = 0; return $intNumber + 1 + 2; }
var_dump(foo());'
int(3)

$ php -r 'function bar() { $strText = "foo"; return $strText . "bar"; }
var_dump(bar());'
string(6) "foobar"

Test script:
---------------
$ php -r 'function foo() { $arrFoo = array(); return $arrFoo[] = "foo"; }
var_dump(foo());'

Expected result:
----------------
array(1) {
  [0]=>
  string(3) "foo"
}

Actual result:
--------------
string(3) "foo"
