Comments:

a function func_get_rarg() should avoid this by treating any function parameter as a reference (if possible), moved to feature request

I fear this cannot be done - you should pass a variable by reference from the start, otherwise you will just assign a reference to a copy.

func_get_arg() does not support references (see example),

$o=1;
test($o);
echo $o;
function test() {
   $l=&func_get_arg(0);
   $l=2; }

displays 1, should 2, I think it should be possible changing this without impact, if not perhaps a func_get_rarg() be fine
