Bug description:  unset dose not free up memory when used on arrays

Description:
------------
php-cli is not freeing up memory of an array. I am haveing this problem on
a large scale and is makeing php take up 40mbs+.

Iv tryed unsetting each value independly. It still had the same problem.
Also this same thing seems to be happening to foreach. 


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
                $test_array = Array();
                $pid = getmypid();
                $loop = 2000;
                echo "Starting Memory:\n";
                echo "USAGE (% KB PID ): " .`ps -eo%mem,rss,pid | grep $pid` . "\n";
                for($i=0;$loop > $i;$i++){
                        $test_array[] = str_repeat("test", 5000);
                }
                echo "Finished Loop:\n";
                echo "USAGE (% KB PID ): " .`ps -eo%mem,rss,pid | grep $pid` . "\n";
                unset($test_array);
                echo "Cleaned Up:\n";
                echo "USAGE (% KB PID ): " .`ps -eo%mem,rss,pid | grep $pid` . "\n";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Starting Memory:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  0.1 3592 14473

Finished Loop:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  1.3 42880 14473

Cleaned Up:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  1.3 3592 14473


Actual result:
--------------
Starting Memory:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  0.1 3592 14473

Finished Loop:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  1.3 42880 14473

Cleaned Up:
USAGE (% KB PID ):  1.3 42880 14473
