Description:
------------
When there is a function on the right-hand side of an assignment operator expression, and the variable is to be accessed via __get/__set, the operation yields wrong results. 

Reproduce code:
---------------
class Container
{
	public function __get( $what )
	{
		return $this->_p[ $what ];
	}
	
	public function __set( $what, $value )
	{
		$this->_p[ $what ] = $value;
	}
	
	private $_p = array();
}

$c = new Container();
$c->a = 1;
$c->a += 1;
print $c->a;	// --> 2

print " - ";
$c->a += max( 0, 1 );
print $c->a;	// --> 4 (!)

Expected result:
----------------
2 - 3

Actual result:
--------------
2 - 4

This code works if you return the value from _get via reference.... try:

public function &__get( $what ) {
    return $this->_p[ $what ];
}

An easier work-around would be $c->a = $c->a + max( 0, 1 ), but work-arounds do not solve bugs..

It's 5.0.x specific bug.

With clean 5.0.x-CVS I get:
2
Fatal error: Unsupported operand types in index.php on line 23 
with the code below.
HEAD works just fine.

Fixed in PHP_5_0.
This bug was already fixed in HEAD long time ago with new garbage collector.
