Same behaviour on Mac OS X, "PHP 5.3.5 (cli) (built: Jan 24 2011
12:53:02)":

PHP Notice:  Undefined variable: xxx in Command line code on line 4
PHP Notice:  Undefined offset: 1 in Command line code on line 12

Isn't this a dupe of "bug #37676 – using Array access operator [] on
boolean variable does not show Notice"?

After performing the same tests in the original post I get the same
results.  Only 2 errors reported as opposed to the expected 3.  PHP
Version 5.2.8 on a Solaris box.

Description:
------------
when setting error_reporting to E_ALL|E_STRICT accessing undefined
offsets in array $arr is reported. However if $arr is a boolean, int or
null there is no error reported



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
error_reporting(E_ALL | E_NOTICE | E_STRICT);

#reports undefined variable
echo $xxx;

#does not report error
$xxx = false;
echo $xxx[1];

#reports undefinied offset
$xxx = array();
echo $xxx[1];
?>


Expected result:
----------------
I expect to see 3 errors 



Actual result:
--------------
instead i see only 2:
Notice: Undefined variable: xxx
Notice: Undefined offset: 1
