The difference is quite noticeable actually.

for example, http://docs.php.net/array_merge

=93If the input arrays have the same string keys, then the later value =
for that key will overwrite the previous one. If, however, the arrays =
contain numeric keys, the later value will not overwrite the original =
value, but will be appended."
