PHP version:      5.2SVN-2009-07-22 (snap)
PHP Bug Type:     Scripting Engine problem
Bug description:  Able to define unusable functions

Description:
------------
There is a consistency problem between the names we can give to a
function, and the names we can actually use.

For instance, I can create a function named _, but not use it.

Reproduce code:
---------------
// This will parse without error
function _($txt) {
    // Do some stuff
}


// This will cause a parse error
_('yes');
