Description:
------------
http://php.net/manual/en/functions.anonymous.php

The documentation for anonymous functions is lacking any mention of the `use` keyword introduced in PHP 5.3. However, the `use` keyword is used in a code sample without comment. This is confusing for a user who stumbles upon the keyword and doesn't know what it does.

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.

There is not a need to document the `use` construct just for anonymous functions. Instead I have clarified the wording above the example mentioned, this should make the example clearer.
