And that is because ..? I don't understand why it's expected.

Because print isn't a function. print is a language construct just like echo and require_once. That is why print/echo can be used without parenthesis.

I am sure that everyone has moved on from this topic by now but I just came across this page in the PHP manual: http://us2.php.net/manual/en/language.pseudo-types.php#language.types.callback It gives a list of "functions" that cannot be used as callbacks. Everything in the list is a language construct and not a function.
