Bug description:  array_sum changed

I would like array_sum() to be able to handel multi-dimentional arrays.

this doesnt work.
<?php
  $test[][] = 1;
  $test[][] = 2;
  $test[][] = 3;
  
  echo array_sum($test);
?>

ive wrote a simple function to make this work.
<?php
  function array_sum_multi($value, $reset = '1')
  {
    static $sum;

    if ($reset)
      $sum = 0;
    if (is_array($value))
      foreach($value as $pos => $val)
        array_sum_multi($val, 0);
    else
      $sum += $value;
    return $sum;
  }

  $test[][] = 1;
  $test[][] = 2;
  $test[][] = 3;

  echo array_sum_multi($test);
?>

just would be nice to see included.
