Bug description:please implement recursive ksort

Description:
------------
I've a problem wherein I'm using SimpleTest's testIdentical to compare
nested arrays, and if the key order differs it throws an error.  What I
really care about is making sure the same content exists in both, order
independent.  My solution was to implement a recursive ksort to run the
nested arrays through to guarantee key order was the same, regardless of
how the arrays are given to me initially.  It seems like it would be useful
to have this functionality in base php.

Test script:
---------------
My short php-based implementation looks like this:



function rksort($array = null) {

        if (!...@is_array($array))

                return $array;



        ksort($array);



        foreach ($array as $index => $notused) {

                $array[$index] = rksort($array[$index]);

        }



        return $array;

}



Expected result:
----------------
Results confirm expectations: the data structure is key sorted recursively
using ksort.
