Hi Klaus,

Sorry about that ... my mistake ... I had intended to do a reply-all ... but I 
must have accidentally done only a reply ....

*Please* stay on the list, as what you're doing prevents information getting 
found. Next time I will ignore any mail directly sent to me. Feel free to CC 
back to the list.

I just saw a few minor changes about 3 months ago, and they don't affect 
arrays. This was shortly before 3.1.0 was released. No other significant 
changes afterwards.

So to me it seems like this is either a bug in the PHP soap code in general, or 
in the PHP wrappers about which you should know orders of magnitude more than I 
do. Other webservice language bindings certainly have no problems (well, Python 
had a similar issue ages ago, which is what I remembered correctly).
