Bug description:  "maybe ref" issue for current() and others

Description:
------------
Minor issue; the implementation of "maybe reference" parameters since
5.1.0 (and still present in 5.2RC2) can cause unexpected results.


Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

$b = array(1=>'one', 2=>'two');
$a =& $b;

var_dump(current($a));
next($a);
$f = "current";
var_dump($f($a));

?>

Expected result:
----------------
string(3) "one"
string(3) "two"

Actual result:
--------------
string(3) "one"
string(3) "one"
