Bug description:Support to swap() function

Description:
------------
This function should swap two variables. Currently it can be done by
code a swap function, like:

function swap(&$a, &$b) {
    $tmp = $a;
    $a = $b;
    $b = $tmp;
}

I think that should be useful PHP do it alone, and simple to include it
on code.
