Just to be clear; I'm introducing array type hinting for all internal functions expecting array and removing therefor useless array type checks inside the functions. These changes however introduce tiny backward compatibility break since it'll emit E_RECOVERABLE rather than E_WARNING... Is this a similar change as the array_merge() change?

If the functions do castings it won't get type hinted array, but those who specifically expect array, and bail out when they get whatever else, will get type hinted array. -Hannes
