Description:
------------
According to 5.4 changenotes, http://php.net/manual/en/migration54.other.php
there is some sort of behavior change to be expected when casting a SimnpleXMLElement to an array.
But unless I'm misunderstanding what the docs mean, the bahavior is consistent all the way from
5.1 to 7.1
https://3v4l.org/F4DfI
If this is not a bug, would someone mind providing an example of the before and after behavior?
Test script:
---------------
<?php
$xml =
"<xml><first-node>foo</first-node><second-node><nested-node>bar</nested-node></second-node><third-node>baz</third-node></xml>";
$a = new SimpleXMLElement($xml);
var_export((array)$a);
