Comment (by random):

 What's the expected behaviour and what's happening instead?

 {{{
 function myfunction() {
         print_r(func_get_args());
         die();
 }
 // -1 == pass all arguments
 add_action('myaction', 'myfunction', 1, -1);
 do_action('myaction', array('1', '2', '3'), array('4', '5'));
 }}}

 returns

 {{{
 Array
 (
     [0] => 1
     [1] => 2
     [2] => 3
     [3] => Array
         (
             [0] => 4
             [1] => 5
         )

 )
 }}}

 which it seems to have been carefully designed to do. I think the
 apply_filters behaviour is better (passing arrays directly), but don't see
 the data loss. (Sorry if I've missed something or misread you!)
