I can't reproduce this in PHP 5.2.14:
root@router:~# php -v
PHP 5.2.14 (cli) (built: Aug 18 2010 17:16:15)
Copyright (c) 1997-2010 The PHP Group
Zend Engine v2.2.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies
root@router:~# php
<?php
dl("json.so");
var_dump(json_encode(array("" => array("a" => 1))));
string(12) "{"":{"a":1}}"
But even if there was actually a bug, PHP 5.2 is only to receive
security updates at this point. So Bogus/Wont Fix.

Description:
------------
In 5.2.14, json_encode() silently discards any array values for which
the array
key is an empty string. This seems identical to Bug #41505, but affects
PHP
5.2.14.
Demonstration code:
var_dump(json_encode(array("" => array("a" => 1))));
Expect (result in 5.2.6, 5.2.10, 5.2.13, 5.3.2):
string(12) "{"":{"a":1}}"
Receive (in 5.2.14):
string(2) "{}"
Test script:
---------------
var_dump(json_encode(array("" => array("a" => 1))));
Expected result:
----------------
string(12) "{"":{"a":1}}"
Actual result:
--------------
string(2) "{}"
