You should use print_r() or var_dump() to investigate what happens when
you try to cast an array into an object. I myself don't know what would
happen. Also, what's allowed and what effects are produced could depend
heavily on the version of PHP you're running. Version 4 != 5 != 5.3 in
this respect.
