found related bug: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=68546

but it does not have information in what version it was implemented

could this be changed to catchable error?
or completely removed now that Reflection solves the hack need?

here's some research what the '\0' thing used to be:

Description:
------------
json with "\0000token" causes fatal error when decoding $assoc=true, however it passes
with $assoc=false.

it should return NULL and set json_last_error flag:

➔ php56 t.php 
int(1)
array(1) {
  ["foo"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["l"]=>
    array(1) {
      ["uid"]=>
      string(0) ""
    }
  }
}
PHP Fatal error:  Cannot access property started with '\0' in t.php on line 4
➔ cat t.php 
<?php

var_dump(1, json_decode('{"foo": {"\u0000l": {"uid":""}
} }', true));
var_dump(2, json_decode('{"foo": {"\u0000l": {"uid":""}
} }', false));
➔
