Bug description:  Using /e option within a class unable to call a local method

If you use preg_replace with the /e option from within a class you may want
to call a method of the current class to perform the lookup. Intuativly a
user might expect this code to work:

$whatever=preg_replace( $pattern,"$this->whatever('\\1')", $value );

That 2nd parameter is being evaluated outside the current class... In this
context "$this" has no meaning outside the object,  So a method like
"$this->whatever{foo)" can never be evaluated directly by this command.

The function works fine if you use it according to the instructions - that
is you provide it with a globally available function it will work
perfectly.
