I seem to remember that the problem is not present on an old server with PHP3.0 that I had running. I will run some more tests at my end - I'll create a stripped down server with just PHP3.0.3 and the minimum necessary to get apache to work, and see if the problem is still there. I'll also confirm my suspicion that it worked with PHP3.0, just as soon as I have time... :-) Are there any other things that you would like me to do (like insert a quick debugging patch)? Unfortunately, I cannot give you access to the box... Do the internals actually keep track of the type of the keys to associative arrays, or do you have rules for deciding what type the keys should have by looking at them?
