Bug description:  Extending SimplXMLElement (or Iterator) w/ __toString

Description:
------------
implicit call to __toString() for the extended class does not work
properly an empty value is returned (even without the try catch block
nothing is returned)

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class XML extends SimpleXMLElement 
{
        public function __toString()
        {
                try
                {
                        $xml = new DOMDocument('1.0', 'utf-8');
                        $xml->formatOutput = TRUE;
                        $xml->preserveWhiteSpace = FALSE;
                        $xml->loadXML($this->asXML());
                        $retval = $xml->saveXML();
                }
                catch(Exception $e)
                {
                        $retval = '';
                }
                return $retval;
        }
}
$xml = new XML('<foo><bar/></foo>');

echo '|' . $xml . "|\n";
echo '|' . (string) $xml . "|\n";
echo '|' . $xml->__toString() . "|\n";


Expected result:
----------------
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
  <bar/>
</foo>
|
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
  <bar/>
</foo>
|
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
  <bar/>
</foo>
|


Actual result:
--------------
||
||
|<?xml version="1.0"?>
<foo>
  <bar/>
</foo>
|
