Bug description: when used inside a function, proc_open generated pipes are closed upon return

Description:
------------
When calling proc_open inside the body
of a function, pipes generated don't survive
function's lifespan. resource is still there
but stream is closed.

Reproduce code:
---------------
function foobar() {
$proc = proc_open(
"/usr/bin/php",
array(
0 => array('pipe', 'r'),
1 => array('pipe', 'w'),
2 => array('pipe', 'w')
),
$pipes
);
var_dump($pipes);
return $pipes;
}
$should_be_pipes = foobar();
var_dump($should_be_pipes);

Expected result:
----------------
array(3) {
[0]=>
resource(6) of type (stream)
[1]=>
resource(7) of type (stream)
[2]=>
resource(8) of type (stream)
}
array(3) {
[0]=>
resource(6) of type (stream)
[1]=>
resource(7) of type (stream)
[2]=>
resource(8) of type (stream)
}

Actual result:
--------------
array(3) {
[0]=>
resource(6) of type (stream)
[1]=>
resource(7) of type (stream)
[2]=>
resource(8) of type (stream)
}
array(3) {
[0]=>
resource(6) of type (Unknown)
[1]=>
resource(7) of type (Unknown)
[2]=>
resource(8) of type (Unknown)
}

New Comment:

The $pipes are dependant resources of the $proc, so if $proc dies, they
are closed too.
Return both $proc and $pipes and everything will be ok.
