Sorry, hit reply instead of reply-all...

list($a,$b) = 1;
var_dump($a,$b);

This doesn't throw notices anywhere else... why should it throw
notices in foreach? I guess the only logical answer would be to notify
you if you were using scalar values with foreach and list, but then we
don't notify you if you're using scalar values with list anywhere else
in the language anyway. I'm starting to see huge inconsistencies with
how list is being implemented in foreach.
