Why count() returns no error when string is given ?

[<rsk82@xxxxxxxx>]

For example when I do:

  strlen(array(1,2,3));

php shows: Warning: strlen() expects parameter 1 to be string, array
given in...

but when I do:

  count('string');

It simply returns 1 like nothing happened. I would expect such
behavior if I write:

  count((array)'string')

but otherwise such behavior is very misleading and inconsistent.
