Description:
------------
Trying to access null as an associative array works just fine and doesn't result in an error, as it should.

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

$testarray = null;

$a = $testarray['test'];  // this should yield to an error

echo('$a = '.$a); // outputs '$a = '

?>

Expected result:
----------------
An error.
