Maybe I should have shown the result of the test:

strobel@s114-intel:~/projekte/PHP> php test-array-walks.php
PHP Deprecated:  Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated in
/home/strobel/projekte/PHP/test-array-walks.php on line 38

Deprecated: Call-time pass-by-reference has been deprecated in

Number of elements using count(): 5
array_key_exists() does NOT work in sub-arrays

        Start run

var before array_walk: (something)
rc = 1, var after array_walk with call by ref: (Karl)
------------------------------
var before array_walk: (something)
rc = 1, var after array_walk with define by ref, call by val: (something)
------------------------------
var before array_walk: (something)
rc = 1, var after array_walk with define by ref + call by ref: (Karl)
------------------------------

Résumé: every working combination of by-ref/by-val gets a deprecated message.

/Str.
