'global'-declaration kills referencies

  function func() {
    global $a, $b;
    $a = 'aaa';
    $b = &$a;
    echo "$a, $b", '<br>';
    global $a, $b;
    echo "$a, $b";
  }
  func();

output: 
  aaa, aaa
  aaa,

Description:
------------
'global'-declaration inside a function dosn't affect referencies.

Test script:
---------------
function func() {
    global $a, $b;
    $a = 'aaa';
    $b = &$a;
    $GLOBALS['c'] = &$a;
}
func();
echo "$a, $b, $c"; 



Expected result:
----------------
aaa, aaa, aaa

Actual result:
--------------
aaa, , aaa
