Forget about arrays. It just dawned on me that *everything undefined* is affected.
var_dump($nothing);
var_dump($a->nothing);
string(6) "srsly?"
string(6) "srsly?"

A bit different behavior shows in older versions.
See http://codepad.org/RBPih545 for example (don't
know their version, but older than 5.4, obviously)

Description:
------------
Basically, when you try to assign anything to ArrayObject[null]['any_key'], it fails as it
should, but since that moment anytime you access a non-existing key in any array, you get the last
created zval, or so it seems.
Strangely enough, all warnings and notices are shown and isset() returns false.
Test script:
---------------
<?
$a = new ArrayObject();
$b = [];
$a[null]['hurr'] = 'durr';
var_dump($a['epic_magic']);
var_dump($b['epic_magic']);
var_dump($c['epic_magic']); // Undefined var!!
$d = [];
var_dump($a['epic_magic']); // more magic!
var_dump($d['epic_magic']);
$e = 'srsly?';
var_dump($a['epic_magic']); // srsly.
Expected result:
----------------
Warning: Illegal offset type in /home/virtuall/epic.php on line 7
NULL
NULL
NULL
NULL
NULL
NULL
bool(false)
Actual result:
--------------
Warning: Illegal offset type in /home/virtuall/epic.php on line 7
array(1) {
["hurr"]=>
string(4) "durr"
}
array(1) {
["hurr"]=>
string(4) "durr"
}
array(1) {
["hurr"]=>
string(4) "durr"
}
array(0) {
}
array(0) {
}
string(6) "srsly?"
bool(false)
