Description:
------------
Calling a function on a newly created object requires saving the object to a variable.  Script that clarifies what I'm trying to say:

class C
{  public function __construct() {}
   public function f()   {   return 1234;   }
};
$y = (new C())->f();
print($y);

The above doesn't work.  However, it does work if you replace the penultimate line with
$x = new C();
$y = $x->f();

If we add parentheses around the $x, i.e.
$y = ($x)->f();
then it still doesn't work.  This and bug report #9587 indicate that the actual underlying cause is that object-valued variables are implemented, but object-valued expressions are not.

Although the "this is not a bug" comment on the above-cited bug report #9587 did not include a rationale, it's difficult for me to decide whether it applies here as well; maybe this bug report should actually be a feature request?  Personally, as a PHP rookie but Java veteran, I would say that object-valued expressions SHOULD work, and they DON'T, therefore it's a BUG.

Thanks!

Reproduce code:
---------------
class C
{  public function __construct() {}
   public function f()   {   return 1234;   }
};
$y = (new C())->f();
print($y);

Expected result:
----------------
1234

Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in c:\path\test.php on line 5
