Returning references and such

Can someone explain to me why ZE always resets the is_ref and refcount fields of a function's return_value to 0 and 1 respectively? This means that we cannot return references or refcounted values at all, and that we can do things in userland PHP that we cannot do in C code. -Andrei * On the keyboard of life, always keep one finger on the escape key. *
