I ran across this problem in an array assignment, but it is reproducible with any variable assignment.  PHP doesn't convert the following numeric assignments correctly.

$a = 06;
$b = 07;
$c = 08;
$d = 09;
$e = 10;

print $a;   // prints 6
print $b;   // prints 7
print $c;   // prints 0
print $d;   // prints 0
print $e;   // prints 10
