If it is an issue, then it is a PHP API issue. This is a PostgreSQL bug list.

You wrote nothing about the API that you use. Probably it is an older PG driver. a PDO driver works differently.

But I don't think so this is a bug. Building an int indexed array is faster than building a string indexed array. This API is pretty old, and had strong benefits on slower computers.

If you want different access, then you can you different API
