As a confirmation of the reference problem, it works using an object
(ArrayObject):
$ctx->comment_preview = new ArrayObject();
$ctx->comment_preview['content'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['rawcontent'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['name'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['mail'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['site'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['preview'] = false;
$ctx->comment_preview['remember'] = false;
var_dump($ctx);
It is getting rather confusing for the users. The bad point is this
specific case is that ArrayObject is disabled with --disable-all...

Is it the same issue? I suspect it to be the same but I'm unsure about
the bogus state. I would like to have a little explanation, just to
write a good work around if this is not a bug.
In this example, the first init raises a notice "Indirect modification
of overloaded property context::$attachments has no effect" as the
second works like a charm.
class context
{
public $stack = array();
public function __set($name,$var)
{
$this->stack[$name] = $var;return;
}
public function __get($name)
{
if (!isset($this->stack[$name])) {
return null;
}
return $this->stack[$name];
}
}
$ctx = new context;
$ctx->comment_preview = array();
$ctx->comment_preview['content'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['rawcontent'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['name'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['mail'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['site'] = '';
$ctx->comment_preview['preview'] = false;
$ctx->comment_preview['remember'] = false;
var_dump($ctx);
$comment_preview = array();
$comment_preview['content'] = '';
$comment_preview['rawcontent'] = '';
$comment_preview['name'] = '';
$comment_preview['mail'] = '';
$comment_preview['site'] = '';
$comment_preview['preview'] = false;
$comment_preview['remember'] = false;
$ctx->comment_preview = $comment_preview;
var_dump($ctx);

Sure it doesn't return a reference, but why this example still prints
"5.1.3-dev This shouldn't work, but why are you seeing this text?"?
<?php
class a
{
public $cond_oper = false,
$array = array();
public function __set ($key, $value)
{
return $this->array[$key] = $value;
}
public function __get ($key)
{
if ($this->cond_oper)
return true ? $this->array[$key] : null;
else
return $this->array[$key]; // This one works even though it
shouldn't!
}
}
$a = new a; $a->a = array();
$a->a[] = "This shouldn't work, but why are you seeing this text?";
$a->cond_oper = true;
$a->a[] = "Nope, this text won't be displayed (which is ok).";
echo phpversion(), "\n", array_pop($a->a);
?>
If I understood your explanations correctly, $a->a should've been an
empty array and I should've seen two error messages telling me that
__get method didn't return a reference etc.
PHP snapshot I used was built on Feb 10, 2006 15:30 GMT.

This is not a bug. Method __get() returns by value and it's result
cannot be passed by reference.

I quickly tried the newest snapshot (20060203, 5.1.3-dev) but neither
error messages were generated nor results were any different from
5.1.2. (Error_reporting was set to E_ALL | E_STRICT and display_errors
was turned on. I tried both conditional operator and normal if
clause.)
But I guess I can utilize ArrayObject etc. to get the expected result I
wanted.
