Would it be possible that the strange behavior is caused by
amphp/aerys in the first place?

Description:
------------
1. I am not 100% if I got the right category for that.
2. I was NOT able to reproduce that intentionally but we obsorved that many, many times in
production.
3. This only happens in long-running PHP environments. It does NOT happen with PHPFPM as every
request creates a separate PHP runtime. Our observations have been made when serving PHP requests
with amp/aerys.
4. It does not happen in EVERY long-running process, but WHEN it happens, the current process is
affected until it dies
Symptom:
Single-char vars are instantly dropped / unset.
E.g.
----
$f = new Foo();
$f->bar();
----
Results in
----
[E_NOTICE] Undefined variable: f
----
and
----
Call to a member function bar() on null
----
This does never happen when using variable names with a couple of chars. I didn't find out the
exact limit, but as of now I have only seen single-char-vars in logs.
