Description:
------------
When using PHP8 ReflectionFunction::getNumberOfParameters() for array_uintersect returns 2 and also they look like this:

array(2) {
  [0]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#2 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(5) "array"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#3 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "rest"
  }
}

But for PHP7 it was looking like this:

array(3) {
  [0]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#2 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "arr1"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#3 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "arr2"
  }
  [2]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#4 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(26) "callback_data_compare_func"
  }
}

Change itself isn't documented on docs, not sure why it was changed, but also when executing this function it works as it was previously.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

$array1 = array("a" => "green", "b" => "brown", "c" => "blue", "red");
$array2 = array("a" => "GREEN", "B" => "brown", "yellow", "red");

print_r(array_uintersect($array1, $array2, "strcasecmp"));

$reflection = new ReflectionFunction('array_uintersect');
var_dump($reflection->getNumberOfParameters());
var_dump($reflection->getNumberOfRequiredParameters());
var_dump($reflection->getParameters());

Expected result:
----------------
Array
(
    [a] => green
    [b] => brown
    [0] => red
)
int(3)
int(3)
array(3) {
  [0]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#2 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "arr1"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#3 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "arr2"
  }
  [2]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#4 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(26) "callback_data_compare_func"
  }
}

Actual result:
--------------
Array
(
    [a] => green
    [b] => brown
    [0] => red
)
int(2)
int(1)
array(2) {
  [0]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#2 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(5) "array"
  }
  [1]=>
  object(ReflectionParameter)#3 (1) {
    ["name"]=>
    string(4) "rest"
  }
}

The documented signature is

array_uintersect ( array $array , array ...$arrays , callable $value_compare_func ) : array

but that isn't actually possible to do: a varargs parameter must be the last one in the list. Reflection is now returning to you the "actual" signature of the method, as one might implement manually in userland, where the first argument is an array and the rest is dynamic.

array_uintersect ( array $array , mixed ...$rest ) : array

This isn't just for array_uintersect but being applied across the board to most/all built-in functions.

Yea, but this callable is missing in the parameters.
 [2021-02-12 15:58 UTC] requinix@php.net
It's missing because it's not part of the function signature. The callback is the last item in $rest, not a distinct parameter.
