Description:
------------
I apologize in advance if this has been reported elsewhere, I searched without 
finding anything.

I have tested this on boxes running versions of PHP 5.3.13, and 5.3.3.

[slowbro@node05 ~]$ php -v
PHP 5.3.3 (cli) (built: Jul  3 2012 16:53:21)
Copyright (c) 1997-2010 The PHP Group

The issue is that I can't pass inline-set variables by reference.

For example, this works:

test($var='something');


...but this doesn't:

test(&$var='something');


Perhaps this is the way the engine works or something- but I would think it 
would be easy enough to (and make sense to) allow this.

Test script:
---------------
function test(&$var){
  $var = 'something else';
}

test(&$newvar='something');
echo $newvar;

Expected result:
----------------
something else

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected '=', expecting ')' in php shell code on 
line 1
