This problem can also affect the private copies of variables
used inside of functions.

Script:

  class test {
        var $property;
        function do_something(){
                 return;
        }
  }
  function mangle($array_in) {
           $array_in[0]->property = 'trashed';
  }
  $array[0] = new test;
  $array[0]->property = 'ok';
  mangle($array);
  echo("<h2>Before:</h2>\n");
  echo("\$array[0]->property is {$array[0]->property}<br>\n");
  $array[0]->do_something();
  mangle($array);
  echo("<h2>After:</h2>\n");
  echo("\$array[0]->property is {$array[0]->property}<br>\n");


Output:

<h2>Before:</h2>
$array[0]->property is ok<br>
<h2>After:</h2>
$array[0]->property is trashed<br>

This will not be fixed anytime soon. It is a deep seated problem in the implementation 
and fixing it would cause speed problems and numerous other problems, This is somthing 
that can be coded around too so should not cause massive problems.

Is this the same as bug 6417?

OK, this only affects objects in the array whose methods
have been accessed.  Other objects are still copies.  It
also works on php-4.0.3pl1 on the Win32 platform.
