<para>
<function>array_replace</function> replaces the values of the first
<parameter>array</parameter> with the same values from all the following
arrays. If a key from the first array exists in the second array, its value
will be replaced by the value from the second array. If the key exists in the
second array, and not the first, it will be created in the first array.
If a key only exists in the first array, it will be left as is.
If several arrays are passed for replacement, they will be processed
in order, the later arrays overwriting the previous values.
</para>
<para>
<function>array_replace</function> is not recursive : it will replace
values in the first array by whatever type is in the second array.
