Bug description:  referencing bug with return value for stream_seek

Description:
------------
When using user-space streams via stream_wrapper_register(),
if you return the value of a property of the object from stream_seek(), it
gets mangled.

Sounds like a problem with the way that the retval from
call_user_function_ex() is disposed.

The workaround is to create a temporary value using a trick like this:

function stream_seek($offset, $whence) {
   ...
   $retval = $this->pos + 0;
   return $retval;
}

presumably the rest of the user wrapper code has the same flaw.

Reproduce code:
---------------
Abbreviated example; my actual test case is too large.
Valgrind does not indicate any memory errors, so the problem  is likely
logical rather than sloppy memory handling.

class MyStream {
  var $this->pos = 0;
 
  function stream_tell() {
    return $this->pos;
  }

  function stream_seek($offset, $whence) {
    return $this->pos;
  }
}


Actual result:
--------------
Problem manifested for me by converting $this->pos to bool(true), which
was then interpreted by the user space wrapper as an invalid return value
from stream_tell(), which simply returns $this->pos.
