     <function>array_intersect_ukey</function> returns an array
     containing all the values of <parameter>array1</parameter>
     which have matching keys that are present in all the arguments.

    <para>
     This comparison is done by a user supplied callback function.
     It must return an integer less than, equal to, or greater than zero if the
     first key is considered to be respectively less than, equal to, or
     greater than the second.

    <para>
     In our example you see that only the keys <literal>'blue'</literal>
     and <literal>'green'</literal> are present in both arrays and thus
     returned. Also notice that the values for the keys
     <literal>'blue'</literal> and <literal>'green'</literal> differ between
     the two arrays. A match still occurs because only the keys are checked.
     The values returned are those of <parameter>array1</parameter>.
    </para>
    <para>
     The two keys from the <literal>key =&gt; value</literal> pairs are
     considered equal only if 
     <literal>(string) $key1 === (string) $key2 </literal>. In other words
     a strict type check is executed so the string representation must be
     the same.
