I'm finding this doesn't work well either.

// INSTEAD
function &foobar () {
  $ret =& ref(null);
  return $ret;
}

This must be done for any returned data.

// E.G.
        function &getAttribute($name)
        {
                if (!isset($this->attributes[$name]))
                {
                        $return =& ref(null);
                }
                else
                {
                        $return =& ref($this->attributes[$name]);
                }
                return $return;
        }
