Operating system: WinXP
PHP version:      5.2.0
PHP Bug Type:     Variables related
Bug description:  in-function-call variable-define bug

Description:
------------
I've noticed that the construction doesn't work fine with php 5.1.6 and
5.2.0
php4 is okay with this

The function reciaves value 'IN', prints it, and changes it to 'MOD'...
but only in php4 =)
Spent hours catching this

Reproduce code:
---------------
function modify(&$str1)
{
print "\n".'In function:'.$str1;
$str1='MOD';
}

modify($a='IN');
print "\n".$a;

Expected result:
----------------
In function:IN
MOD


Actual result:
--------------
In function:IN
IN
