zval_copy_ctor used on an array makes a reference copy of the array.
Basically, it just copies all the data items in the hashtable and then adds one to the
reference count for all data items.
Looking at the code, it appears to not recursively copy into nested arrays.
(Could be part of your problem)
Since this is a reference copy, you can not free the memory used by
the array you are copying. I am assuming that this is the cause of your default.
