Confirmed using Apache 2.0.46, Windows XP SP1 and the latest snapshot (php5-win32-200307091830.zip)

Identical problem as stated

print_r() gives the expected output with the expected keys and values, however, trying to reference the key within the code results in it not being set

Reproduced with latest PHP 5 CVS. Works fine with PHP 4.3.3RC2-dev.

One more thing - setting "register_long_arrays = On" in php.ini makes the problem go away. But its bad because of the performance hit.

look at
http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=24652

btw: I have set "register_long_arrays = On" and it does not chang anything - same problems as before!

Yes it was my mistake. Actually this problem stays even after long arrays are enabled

This bug has been fixed in CVS.

In case this was a PHP problem, snapshots of the sources are packaged
every three hours; this change will be in the next snapshot. You can
grab the snapshot at http://snaps.php.net/.
 
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up soon at
http://www.php.net/manual/.

In case this was a PHP.net website problem, the change will show
up on the PHP.net site and on the mirror sites in short time.
 
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
