The current version, 3.1.3, has got this right.  The manual page says:

                   NOTE: Array subscripting is not affected.  However,
                   the asort() and asorti() functions are affected.

which is the actual behaviour.
The same warning is in the info manual, in the node "Array Sorting".

Have a nice day,
