Bug description:  Automatic type casting for the variable function name

Description:
------------
Currently, php 5.3.0 doesn't support automatic type casting for the
variable function name, we indeed need it, it could lead to very cool
applications.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
class cls_so_work
      {function __toString()
                {return 'so_work';
                }
      }
function so_work()
         {echo 'hello';
         }

$o=new cls_so_work;
echo $o.'<br>';
$o();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
so_work
hello

Actual result:
--------------
so_work
Fatal error: Function name must be a string in
E:\WWW\PhpApps\test\test.php on line 18
