function pointerTest()
{
	$args = &func_get_args();
	pointerTest2(&$args[0]);
	
	$myP = &$args[0];
	pointerTest2(&$myP);
}

function pointerTest2(&$arg1)
{
	$arg1++;
}

$myVal = 10;
pointerTest(&$myVal);
echo $myVal;
-------------------------
i believe that currently func_get_args() can't return an array of references.  it also applies to func_get_arg(int) which can't return a reference to the parameter in question.  could that be changed to allow user-defined functions on variable-length argument lists that operate on their parameters by reference?
