I believe this is the cause of my recent bug report: http://bugs.php.net/?id=6175 These a workaround in the bug report provided by Lars Torben Wilson which appears to work alright for now, but it's still wrong. > I took a look at usort and tried to figure out how it was accepting > the array($object, 'method') syntax, but got completely lost.
