Description:
------------
When I call a function debug_backtrace() in usort() callback, it triggers 
unrelated warning. 

When i var_dump() it's result, it's OK.


Verified on my mashine
$ php -v
PHP 5.3.11-dev (cli) (built: Mar  1 2012 16:31:39) 

and on my friend's mashine with 5.3.5

Test script:
---------------
<?php

error_reporting(E_ALL | E_STRICT);

$versions = array('1', '2');

usort($versions, function ($me, $him) {
	debug_backtrace(FALSE);
	return 1;
});


Expected result:
----------------
No warning

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: usort() [function.usort]: Array was modified by the user comparison 
function in /home/hosiplan/develop/testing/php/backtrace.error.php on line 18

This worked in 5.3.0, it's broken in 5.3.1-5.3.11 and 5.4.0-5.4.1.

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

User debug_backtrace(DEBUG_BACKTRACE_IGNORE_ARGS); else the array is provided as a part of the retuned array. The engine then can'T guarantee there won't be any changes ... and changes during a sort can lead to unpredictable results.
