Description:
------------
Libraries such as Doctrine 2 and PHPUnit_MockObject (ab)use the unserialize()
function (unserialize(sprintf('O:%d:"%s":0:{}', strlen($name), $name))) to
instantiate an object of a class without invoking the constructor.
It would be nice if the Reflection API provided a clean API for this use case
that does not depend on implementation details of PHP's serializer.
