Bug description:Iterating twice over an array changes the array

Description:
------------
When using foreach to iterate over an array using the reference (&$value)
syntax, and using foreach a second time using the same variable name
changes the original array by overwriting the array's last item with the
second-last.



This is obviously wrong...





Hint: note the missing object's id #4 in the actual result

Test script:
---------------
// the example uses objects to show the object's id in the output, but this
error also occurs works with scalars



class A {}



$c = array(new A(), new A(), new A(), new A());

$arr = $c; // to keep the reference



var_dump($arr);



foreach ($arr as &$value) {}

        

var_dump($arr);



// using the same variable name

foreach ($arr as $value) {}



var_dump($arr);

Expected result:
----------------
array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  object(A)#4 (0) {

  }

}

array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  object(A)#4 (0) {

  }

}

array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  object(A)#4 (0) {

  }

}



Actual result:
--------------
array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  object(A)#4 (0) {

  }

}

array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  &object(A)#4 (0) {

  }

}

array(4) {

  [0]=>

  object(A)#1 (0) {

  }

  [1]=>

  object(A)#2 (0) {

  }

  [2]=>

  object(A)#3 (0) {

  }

  [3]=>

  &object(A)#3 (0) {

  }
