Description:
------------
When using a simple isset() script crashes PHP5.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$array = array('foo' => 'bar');
if (isset($array[])) echo "Something";
?>

Expected result:
----------------
The expected result is to echo "Something"

Actual result:
--------------
Actual result is a "Apache.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close.  We are sorry for the inconvenience." error in PHP5TS.DLL, running as a Module on Apache 1.3.31.

Debug tool with Microsoft Visual Studio returns this:
"Unhandled exception in Apache.exe (PHP5TS.DLL): 0xC0000005: Access Violation"

Your expected result is wrong, you can not isset on an addition to an array.

Besides that, i could reproduce this on Linux too.

backtrace:

Same with empty()
 [2004-11-04 15:08 UTC] thekid@php.net 
Now outputs:

Fatal error: Cannot use [] for reading in /usr/home/thekid/test.php on line 3

The crash has gone, this is expected functionality, I assume this can be closed.
