The issue was that Dereference.handleArrowHashDeref() and handleArrowArrayDeref() were not checking the HINT_STRICT_REFS flag at compile time. They always used the strict versions of dereference methods, even when 'no strict refs' was active.
Changes:
RuntimeScalar.java: Added 8 new *NonStrict methods for hash/array operations (hashDerefDeleteNonStrict, hashDerefExistsNonStrict, arrayDerefGetNonStrict, arrayDerefDeleteNonStrict, arrayDerefExistsNonStrict, arrayDerefGetSliceNonStrict)
RuntimeBaseProxy.java: Added 6 NonStrict method overrides to delegate to lvalue
Dereference.java: Updated handleArrowHashDeref() and handleArrowArrayDeref() to check isStrictOptionEnabled(HINT_STRICT_REFS) and call appropriate methods
Test Results:
Fixes symbolic references like: $a[0]{k} where $a[0] = 'foo' creates $foo{k}
