Bug description: The current() function does not return references
When filling an array with reference to objects
the current() function does not return the reference to the
object but a copy of the object.
i.e.
$ref = ¤t($some_array);
returns a copy
work around:
$ref = &$some_array[key($some_array)];
returns the reference
Is this a bug or a difference in implementation?
