Description:
------------
Hi

When trying to access a non-existing value in a multidimensional array,
instead of causing a PHP error, a value was returned.

Jason

Test script:
---------------
$a = array ( 'name' => 'jason' );

echo $a[ 'name' ][ 'none' ];

Expected result:
----------------
PHP Error

Actual result:
--------------
The script returns the string "j".
