Description:
------------
debug_print_backtrace()'s manual page mentions that this function returns void.

In fact, it seems to return an empty array (tested under 5.1.2 and 5.1.1-gentoo)

I'm not sure what needs to be changed:

The function definition in the php source or the documentation. If its the latter one, then here is the patch:

Thanks in advance.

This is in fact not documentation problem - returning empty array is pointless and should be fixed.
I'll fix the function in a minute.
