Same as with sizeof() btw (which is alias). I've did run into this issue a few years ago and decided that you should check whether the argument you're passing to count() or sizeof() is an array: problem solved.
So:
$a = $count = false;
if (is_array($a)) {
$count = count($a);
}
The "1" result is due to type conversion, well known and discussed within this same mailing list.
unreal4u-MBP:~ unreal4u$ php -a
Interactive shell
php > $a = false;
php > print_r((array)$a);
Array
(
[0] =>
)
