 New Comment:

Can you test to confirm if this differs between 32 bit and 64 bit builds of PHP 7.0.0 Alpha 2 and if
possible if it happens on non Windows on 7.0.0 Alpha 2?

If you don't have the chance to, then its fine and simply put the ticket back to
"Open", thanks

Confirmed for COM objects, but not for objects in general, e.g.

  var_dump((bool) new StdClass); // => bool(true)
  var_dump((bool) new ArrayObject([])); // => bool(true)

Description:
------------
Casting object to bool returns false (in PHP 7.0)
Old PHP 5.6 returns true.

Test script:
---------------
<?php
 var_dump((bool)new COM('WScript.Shell'));
?>

Expected result:
----------------
true (like PHP 5.6)

Actual result:
--------------
false
