Description:
------------
When you call curl_init() or any other curl_xxx() function from within a namespace, without prepending a "\" (which you are not supposed to have to do), you get this stupid error:

Call to undefined function Whatever\\The\\Current\\NameSpace\\Is\\curl_init()

Test script:
---------------
namespace TestNameSpace;

class TestClass {
  function testMethod() {
    curl_init();
    echo "OK";
  }
}

$t=new TestClass();
$t->testMethod();

Expected result:
----------------
OK

Actual result:
--------------
Call to undefined function TestNameSpace\\curl_reset()

Please can you check you have curl installed.

I can't reproduce your issue, except when curl is not installed.

Sorry, my report is bullshit because PHP gives confusing error messages.

Actually my issue was that I was calling curl_reset() which only exists starting from 5.5, but I'm on PHP 5.4.

The real issue here is that the error message should read "call to undefined function curl_reset()" rather than "call to undefined function NameSpace\\curl_reset()".

I see that the error message is fixed in PHP 7. Cool.

I meant in 7.3.0alpha1
