The solution you provided does work for my example. However, I still
think it would be a good feature to have.
The actual initial purpose I had in mind was to flatten arrays.
$list = Array( Array("a"), Array("b"), Array("c") );
$flat = array_reduce($list, 'array_merge');
Which will unfortunately fail.
Only allowing an integer or null starting type is an odd limitation,
particularily as the array can contain any type.

And what if you try without the last parameter for array_reduce() ?

Description:
------------
The array_reduce function currently only starts with an integer value.
This seriously limits it's functionality.
For example, it should be trivial to use array_reduce to concatonate an
array of strings. This currently isn't possible.
Reproduce code:
---------------
$list = Array("page1", "page2", "page3");
print_r(
array_reduce($list,
create_function('$v, $w', 'return $v.$w;')
, '')
);
Expected result:
----------------
page1page2page3
Actual result:
--------------
0page1page2page3
