Bug description:  __call() is not invoked for private methods

Description:
------------
I am using PHP 5.2.8, but I am not 100% sure this bug was removed from
actual versions.

The bug is that an attempt to access declared private method does not lead
to __call() magic method invocation, but instead raises an error due to
visibility as if there was no __call() declared at all.

According to documentaion this should work the way it works for member
variables - i.e. both undeclared and invisible methods should be resolved
via __call(). In my version of PHP it works fine for variables (__get/__set
work for both undeclared and invisible variables), but it does not work as
intended for methods (__call works only for undeclared methods).

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class MyClass
{
 private $v;
 private function f($a, $b, $c) { echo "f();"; }
 function __get($name) { echo "get($name)<br/>"; return $this->v; }
 function __set($name, $v) { echo "set($name)<br/>"; $this->v = $v; }
 function __call($name, $args) { echo "call($name, ".implode(", ",
$args).")<br/>"; }
}

$o = new MyClass;
$o->q = $o->q; // OK (undeclared variable)
$o->v = $o->v; // OK (invisible variable)
$o->g(1,2,3); // OK (undeclared method)
$o->f(1,2,3); // FAILURE (invisible method)
?>

Expected result:
----------------
get(q)
set(q)
get(v)
set(v)
call(g, 1, 2, 3)
call(f, 1, 2, 3)


Actual result:
--------------
get(q)
set(q)
get(v)
set(v)
call(g, 1, 2, 3)

Fatal error: Call to private method MyClass::f() from context '' in
/.../test.php on line 15
