 New Comment:

Anonymous classes in Java are convenient when used with Interfaces. In PHP, 
this 
could help with MVC frameworks. Say all pages had a class that implemented 
PageController:
[some_page.php]
$page_controller = new PageInterface() {
  function doGet() {}
  function doPost() {}
};

A current workaround would be using a factory or constructor to which you pass 
required methods, and not using an interface. It works, but then you have to 
deal with missing methods in application logic where you could otherwise just 
handle an error.

Not exactly the same but look at closure and traits support in 5.4.

Would be nice to have this in Php 5.4 (or a latter version)

David,  I do not believe you are understanding the request here.

I believe this is more what is being requested.

class Base {
   private $name;
   public function __construct($name) {
      $this->name = $name;
   }
   public function test() {
      return $this->name;
   }
}

$obj = new class extends Base {
     public function test() {
        return '<'.$this->name.'>';
     }
};

echo $obj->test();

Basically similar to that of anonymous functions introduced in PHP 5.3
