Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

http://www.php.net/manual/en/migration5.incompatible.php
Read the third entry.

But "isset($arr['c1']['c2']['c3'])" causes no error... and even no notice. Is this the bug than?
