Philip is right, it's a stupid and cryptic error message.

The error returned should be useful at least.

Bad call.

I'm sorry, I didn't realize that Unknown() and line #0 were official,
I'll add this to the documentation.

No bug here. Philip, ask such questions on the mailing list and stop
spamming the bug system with these..

I don't understand the answer, and this is certainly not documented.
Also, why did you assign it to yourself and mark it as bogus?

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
[url]http://www.php.net/manual/[/url] and the instructions on how to report
a bug at [url]http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php[/url]

When some engine facility tries to call a non existing functions you
receive such errors.

register_shutdown_function() provides a warning instead of a fatal
error when calling an undefined function. Not sure if this is
intentional or not but here's a test script:

<?php
echo 'hello';
register_shutdown_function('do_not_exist');
?>

And next, the strange looking error. Same result for both Apache
module and CLI:

Hello
Warning: Unknown(): Unable to call do_not_exist() - function does not
exist in Unknown on line 0

A PHP5 CLI demonstrates this same error.
