Bug description:  value returned from __call copied prematurely

Description:
------------
Values returned from the magic __call method are copied immediately 
resulting in increased memory usage.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

function mem($msg='') { echo ($msg ? $msg.": " :
'').number_format(memory_get_usage(1))."\n"; }

class A
{
    public $str;
    public function __construct() { $this->str = str_repeat("a", 1000000);
}
    public function __call($m, $a) {return $this->str;}
    public function getStr() {return $this->str;}
}

$a = new A(); mem('new A()');
$b = $a->str; mem('$a->str');
$c = $a->getStr(); mem('$a->getStr()');
$d = $a->magic(); mem('$a->magic()');

?>

Expected result:
----------------
new A(): 1,310,720
$a->str: 1,310,720
$a->getStr(): 1,310,720
$a->magic(): 1,310,720

Actual result:
--------------
new A(): 1,310,720
$a->str: 1,310,720
$a->getStr(): 1,310,720
$a->magic(): 2,359,296
