Bug description:Example #1 is_callable() with a mistake

Description:
------------
---
From manual page:
http://www.php.net/function.is-callable#refsect1-function.is-
callable-examples
---
I'm studying for the ZCE and I found what it seems a mistake. This code
does not 
return true, returns false. I think the second parameter has to set to
true.

I hope it will be useful.
Greetings.

Test script:
---------------
function someFunction() 
{
}

$functionVariable = 'someFunction';

var_dump(is_callable($functionVariable, false, $callable_name));  //
bool(true)

echo $callable_name, "\n";  // someFunction

It shows:
bool(false) someFunction

function someFunction2() 
{
}

$functionVariable = 'someFunction2';

var_dump(is_callable($functionVariable, true, $callable_name));  //
bool(true)

echo $callable_name, "\n";  // someFunction
