It will cause memory corruptions.

Yes, I know it's unfortunate, but ATM it's not fixable.

Yes I understand, that $v=0 in f($v=0) is expression in POV of php, but
in POV of user it is :
1. initializing variable
2. passing this variable as by reference argument to function

And second, why this produces no error message (no warning, no notice;
error_reporting=E_ALL) under 4.4.2 and works it as expected ?
This seems to me like regression problem between 4.4 -> 5.1 ?

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Turn on error displaying and you'll see "only variables can be passed
by reference". "$v=..." as function argument is an expression.

Please use a support channel in future.
