Description:
------------
str_[i]replace() has a count parameter that returns a variable (by reference) with a count of replacements.  This is not counting when the search string is one character in length.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
$count = 0;
$str = str_replace('a', '', 'apples are good', $count);

echo $count;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
2

Actual result is 0.  The bug database didn't allow 0 as an actual or expected result value, but does now :)
