I would expect is_callable() to return true (since it is callable), but
method_exists() to return false (since it doesn't really exist, it's
magic)... at least, that's what would make most sense to me...

Hello Davey,
if you ask me it is stupid to return true because __call exists since the
user can pretty easy do that by adding one more check. But he can in no way
query if the function really exists or not (well he can use reflection but
that is thousand times slower...)

Dear all,
I came across something when I found this bug
(http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=33621).
Should is_callable() and method_exists() always return true when the
method doesn't *really* exist? i.e. it would only be called via __call()
Is it possible to add an argument to make it only check "real" methods
at the very least? Or some way to additionally distinguish between these
two things?
