call_user_method and call_user_method_array functions do not force the object to be passed reference, and the call is made to a copy of the object.

This kills off the use of objects, as when the call returns any changes made to the properties of the object are lost.

I added my own call_user_method_array call to 4.0.4pl1 (prior to it appearing in CVS) which forces the object by reference.

Could we change the behaviour so that the object parameters are passed by reference?  I don't think this will break anyones scripts.

I think this has been implemented, anyway, call_user_method
is outdated, just use call_user_function with the
array(&$obj, "method") syntax.
