Expected, but probably not well documented behaviour. Only string keys are preserverd.

Use $merged_array = $array1 + $array2; for your purpose.

Making a documentation problem.

This bug has been fixed in CVS. You can grab a snapshot of the
CVS version 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.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PHP better.
