New Comment:
$$ is just a shortcut for a lookup in the variable hashtable
of the current namespace ($GLOABLS if outside a function)
so you end up with the equivalent of $GLOBALS["GLOBALS[first][second]"]
which is obviously not supposed to work as a multidimensional array access
IMHO $$ should *not* become to clever aka. complicated
moved to feature requests for now although the amount of
exclamation marks used almost justified bogusification

$dynvar = "GLOBALS[first][second]";
echo $$dynvar;
result : nothing , no error and no output!
for arrays stored in variables only to ways are working:
$dynvar = "GLOBALS";
echo ${$dynvar[first][second]};
or more dynamic but more slower!
$dynvar = "<"."?PHP echo \$GLOBALS[first][second]; ?".">";
eval $dynvar;
you can use a variable to store instead of echo!
I think this breaks the rules of assigning variable variables . It must be
possible to store the complete call of the array in a variable.
The Way implemented jet is not praktical!!!!! Real World Tested! There are
so much postings in many Forums and Mailinglist with no suggestion . I can't
understand this! So i must think this is a BUG! or was forgotten to realize!
