Bug description:  Element value changes without asking

I create an array an then a reference to an element of that array.
Then the array is passed to a function (by value!) which changes the value
of the element.
After that, the global array has also another value.

I would expect this behaviour if I passed the array by reference but I did
not.

<?php

$array = array(1);

$reference =& $array[0];

echo $array[0], '<br>';
theFunction($array);

echo $array[0], '<br>';

function theFunction($array) {
    $array[0] = 2;
}

?>
