Yes, your patch does resolve the problem for me.  Thanks for such a quick response and my apologies
for not being able to give a more reproducible test case for you (but good guess).

I can not produce this, so I only can give a guess, could you please try to verify whether this fix
works?

Description:
------------
Using references to array keys in arguments to SOAP calls seems to break the argument processing of
SOAP arguments.  This works fine in PHP 5.5 but breaks in PHP 7.0.0RC8.

PHP7.0.0RC8 configuration
 
'./configure'  '--prefix=/usr/local/php7'
'--with-config-file-scan-dir=/usr/local/php7/etc/conf.d' '--enable-bcmath'
'--with-bz2' '--enable-calendar' '--enable-intl'
'--enable-exif' '--enable-dba' '--enable-ftp'
'--with-gettext' '--with-gd' '--with-jpeg-dir'
'--enable-mbstring' '--with-mcrypt' '--with-mhash'
'--enable-mysqlnd' '--with-mysql=mysqlnd'
'--with-mysql-sock=/var/run/mysqld/mysqld.sock' '--with-mysqli=mysqlnd'
'--with-pdo-mysql=mysqlnd' '--with-openssl' '--enable-pcntl'
'--with-pspell' '--enable-shmop' '--enable-soap'
'--enable-sockets' '--enable-sysvmsg' '--enable-sysvsem'
'--enable-sysvshm' '--enable-wddx' '--with-zlib'
'--enable-zip' '--with-readline' '--with-curl'
'--enable-fpm' '--with-fpm-user=www-data' '--with-fpm-group=www-data

No modifications to php.ini.

The web services in question are not public, so I can't provide a completely working example,
however it seems like the behaviour should be independent of the service itself (although possibly
it does somehow depend on the service definition) and it may not be related to SOAP at all, but this
is the situation in which I've seen it.

The example provides two SoapClient children which pre-process the arguments given.  Both do the
same thing, but one creates assigns a variable with a reference while one assigns a variable
without.  The only difference is the reference assignment, but the one with the reference ends up
not processing the arguments at all and passing a request without arguments.

The key line in the example is 32
(https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6d20b14d0f5fedbc04ca#file-example-php-L32bug-example-L17), where
we assign a reference to $params[0]; the array index already exists, so it's not created by the
assignment, but we can see on line 18
(https://gist.github.com/anonymous/6d20b14d0f5fedbc04ca#file-example-php-L18) that the
SoapClientFine class does exactly the same but without a reference and it works OK.

Recompiling with --enable-debug and running valgrind as described in https://bugs.php.net/bugs-getting-valgrind-log.php
shows no difference between runs with the SoapClientFine and with the SoapClientBroken (0
definitely/indirectly/possibly lost, 54 blocks still reachable).
