It doesn't throw E_FATAL. It throws E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR which doesn't
do anything.

bjori@jessica:~$ cat t.php
<?php
function err() {
    return true;
}
set_error_handler("err", E_RECOVERABLE_ERROR);

function bar(array $array) {
    foreach($array as $k => $v) {
        printf("%s - %s\n", $k, $v);
    }
}

bar("hello world");

bjori@jessica:~$ php t.php

Warning: Invalid argument supplied for foreach() in /home/bjori/t.php on line 8
