Many thanks for the feedback to both of you. :)

That is true for anything that uses is_callable anywhere.

I figured that this situation is on purpose and I don't think that it is
ridiculous per se. It makes sense if is_object() is defined as only
identifying valid objects (and incomplete class is by definition invalid).

Will prepare a PR. 8)

Definitely on my roadmap anyways and yes stas, this requires going
through a sh**load of existing tests but it is definitely worth it.
