Bug description:inconsistency using uninitialized array elements

Description:
------------
While I agree that it would be better to actually initialize elements
before using them, it is anyway wrong that they behave in inconsistent ways
when you do that.



They should BOTH count as 0, hence become 1 and -1, OR they should **BOTH**
stay NULL.



It does not make any sense at all to have them behave in two different
ways.

Test script:
---------------
$pitale=array();

$pitale["ok"]++;

$pitale["bug"]--;

print_r($pitale);

Expected result:
----------------
Array

(

    [ok] => 1

    [bug] => -1

)



---OR---



Array

(

    [ok] => 

    [bug] => 

)



Actual result:
--------------
Array

(

    [ok] => 1

    [bug] => 

)
