http://php.net/echo says:

"It is not possible to use echo() in a variable function  context, but you can use print() instead."

This isn't true, as I found with a simple script. And if it were, http://www.php.net/manual/en/functions.variable-functions.php says it isn't so there's a bug there instead.
