'1'==1
That is, (int)'1' == 1
So (int)'hello world' == 0
it is consistent
Weak typing means there will be type juggling when you compare different types.
Use === if you want to prevent type juggling.

Description:
------------
comparision of integer 0 and any string always returns true
the problem is independent from operands order.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
// the following code returns true
var_dump(('hello world' == 0));
// the same thing
var_dump((0 == 'hello world'));
Expected result:
----------------
I think it has to return false, matching inequal variables
