This is not a bug, it's a consequence of how references and arrays work
in PHP (perhaps, more appropriately, this is a bug, but a it's a design
shortcoming that can't be fixed any time soon).
Take a look at

Description:
------------
When an array was in a parameter list from bind_param() you can't copy
it to another array, it's always a reference. But when you copy a single
field from this array to a variable it's not a refence to the array.
Test script:

Expected result:
----------------
Some Examples, which show what I mean. It's bit hard to understand. It's
NOT the reference to bind_param(). It's that an array gives only his
reference when copied to another array.
