Description:
------------
While passing references every which way, I come to a point where I cannot get my processForm function to return a reference to an object member variable.

Pretty serious bug I think...

Reproduce code:
---------------
http://www.opendbms.com/test.phps

80 lines with comments, Ready to run.

Expected result:
----------------
I expect the output to look like this:

Request Object
(
    [attributes:private] => Array
        (
            [sequencelist] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Orders.ProductInfo
                    [1] => NewSequence1.New1
                )

        )

    [parameters:private] => Array
        (
            [sequence] => Orders.ProductInfo
        )

)

                    [1] => NewSequence1.New1

                    [3] => NewSequence3.New3
                )

        )

    [parameters:private] => Array
        (
            [sequence] => Orders.ProductInfo
        )

)

(
    [0] => Orders.ProductInfo
    [1] => NewSequence1.New1
    [2] => NewSequence2.New2

)


Actual result:
--------------
Request Object
(
    [attributes:private] => Array
        (
            [sequencelist] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Orders.ProductInfo
                    [1] => NewSequence1.New1
                )

        )

    [parameters:private] => Array
        (
            [sequence] => Orders.ProductInfo
        )

)
Request:Request Object
(
    [attributes:private] => Array
        (
            [sequencelist] => Array
                (
                    [0] => Orders.ProductInfo
                    [1] => NewSequence1.New1
                    [2] => NewSequence2.New2
                )

        )

    [parameters:private] => Array
        (
            [sequence] => Orders.ProductInfo
        )

)
Reference:Array
(
    [0] => Orders.ProductInfo
    [1] => NewSequence1.New1
    [2] => NewSequence2.New2
    [3] => NewSequence3.New3
)

The Request object is missing the last element of the array, because it is no longer a reference at that point.
