Description
The following code:
<?php
function Error2Exception($errno, $errstr, $errfile, $errline)
{
throw new MyException($errstr, $errno);
}
set_error_handler('Error2Exception');
function bar(array &$a): ?bool {
foreach ($a as $key => $val) {
if ($val === 2) {
unset($a[$fusion]);
}
}
}
function foo($a, bool $b): bool {
do {
$res = bar($a);
} while ($res === null && $n !== $n2);
}
foo([2,'a'=>5], false);
Resulted in this output:

Research direction
Run the supplied PHP reproducer against the nightly build, then inspect Zend/zend_hash.c around line 1543 and the hash deletion path. Trace why the assertion is reached; done means the reproducer no longer aborts and the failure has a regression test.
