Description:
------------
var_dump() treats objects and arrays differently when they 
contain references to themselves.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

class a {
}

$a = new a();
$a->foo =& $a;
var_dump($a);

$b = array();
$b[1] =& $b;
var_dump($b);


?>


Expected result:
----------------
object(a)(1) {
  ["foo"]=>
  &object(a)(1) {
    ["foo"]=>
    *RECURSION*
  }
}
array(1) {
  [1]=>
  &array(1) {
    [1]=>
    *RECURSION*
  }
}


Actual result:
--------------
object(a)(1) {
  ["foo"]=>
  &object(a)(1) {
    ["foo"]=>
    &object(a)(1) {
      ["foo"]=>
      *RECURSION*
    }
  }
}
array(1) {
  [1]=>
  array(1) {
    [1]=>
    *RECURSION*
  }
}
