Wie kann ich die Schlüsselreihenfolge beim Sortieren assoziativer Arrays in PHP mit uasort beibehalten?

<code class="php">function mergesort(&$array, $cmp_function = 'strcmp') {
    // Base cases for arrays of size < 2
    if (count($array) < 2) return;
    // Split the array in half
    $halfway = count($array) / 2;
    $array1 = array_slice($array, 0, $halfway);
    $array2 = array_slice($array, $halfway);
    // Recursively sort the halves
    mergesort($array1, $cmp_function);
    mergesort($array2, $cmp_function);
    // Handle case if $array1 is entirely less than $array2
    if (call_user_func($cmp_function, end($array1), $array2[0]) < 1) {
        $array = array_merge($array1, $array2);
        return;
    }
    // Merge the two sorted arrays
    $array = array();
    $ptr1 = $ptr2 = 0;
    while ($ptr1 < count($array1) && $ptr2 < count($array2)) {
        if (call_user_func($cmp_function, $array1[$ptr1], $array2[$ptr2]) < 1) {
            $array[] = $array1[$ptr1++];
        } else {
            $array[] = $array2[$ptr2++];
        }
    }
    // Merge the remainder
    while ($ptr1 < count($array1)) $array[] = $array1[$ptr1++];
    while ($ptr2 < count($array2)) $array[] = $array2[$ptr2++];
    return;

<code class="php">uasort($arr, function($a, $b){
    return ($a == $b)?1:($a - $b);
});</code>
