Description:
------------
If a class doesn't have a constructor but we pass some arguments into it, then the statements in parentheses won't be executed.

But if we add an empty constructor, it will work as expected.

Test script:
---------------
new stdClass(NOT_EXISTING_FUNCTION());

Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Call to undefined function NOT_EXISTING_FUNCTION()


Actual result:
--------------
Nothing. Object was created without errors

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

This is expected, as the checking is done in runtime. It's just like: <?php if (0) { foo(); }
