Bug description:  array_push() fails when the array doesn't exist

Description:
------------
>From http://bugs.debian.org/289244:

array_push will not create new array when called with arg which is not
array type (or nonexistant).

This could be just documentation error to state, that new array won't be
created inside array_push().

I am not sure that there is easy fix inside PHP, since array parameter in
array_push is reference and not value.  So it looks like that it gets
created inside array_push, but discarded (or leaked?) afterwards.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
array_push ($foo, 1, 2, 3);
print ("bar $foo[0] baz\n");
?>


Expected result:
----------------
bar 1 baz

Actual result:
--------------
bar  baz
