This is a repeat of 5226, but I couldn't add anything without a password, which I didn't have.

In that bug, stas@cvs.php.net didn't understand the example that was given. What happens is this: if you have

$a[5]="five"; 
$a[6]="six";

and then do array_pop($a), you now have $a[0]="five", not $a[5]="five", as I would expect.

Despite not understanding the example, stas answered the question: that's the way the zend engine works. But you don't see that as a problem?

Closing, duplicate of 5226.

I don't understand. I know it's a duplicate, but it wasn't fixed in 5226, either.

Doesn't this make the array_x functions useless? Or, worse than useless, really, because I have to figure out which ones work and which don't (since I see array_pop works as expected), and keep a list of which ones to avoid, since functions can't be redefined, and I don't have the option of fixing them locally.

Or, to put it another way:

$a != array_pop(array_push($a, 1))

Again: this doesn't seem like a problem to you?
