Description:

when creating an object on the globals array, referancing its members to a variable does not work properly.

it works as expected in normal arrays.



Reproduce code:

<?php

 class a
 {
  var $r;
  function a()
  {
   $this->r=1;
  }


 }

 $GLOBALS["a"]=&new a();
 $a=&$GLOBALS["a"]->r;

 print($a);
  $GLOBALS["a"]->r=2;
//should print 2, instead prints 1
 print($a);

?>


Expected result:
----------------
12

Actual result:
--------------
11

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

There are dozens of other ways too to "shoot-yourself-in-foot"..just don't do it.
