The following code:
<?php
set_error_handler(function ($fusion, $errstr) {
global $nan;
$nan = bin2hex(random_bytes(4));
});
settype($nan, 'object');
try {prev($nan);} catch (Exception $e) { echo($e); }Resulted in this output:

get_ht_for_iapemits a deprecation and thereafter assumes the zval is still an object.To solve this we'd need to fetch the properties and add protection to the hash table before emitting the deprecation; or detect clobbering. This fits in the broader issue of #20018, and given that this is caused by deprecated functionality I'm not even sure if we should attempt to fix this (urgently).
Cleaned up reproducer:
