Bug description:Debug Backtrace gives no handle to anonymous functions

Description:
------------
Debug backtrace traditionally gives several pieces of information about the
call 
stack, including file name, line number, and function name. However, with 
anonymous functions it simply gives "{closure}". This makes anonymous
functions 
received through debug_backtrace inaccesible through reflection because
there is 
no reference to them.

I propose that debug_backtrace always provide an additional key "reference"
which 
is a reference to the actual function. This will let the function be called
or 
provided to the reflection API.

Test script:
---------------
<?PHP

$anon = function() {
 $name = (debug_backtrace[0]['name']); // yields {closure}
 $refl = new ReflectionFunction($name); // works great except with
closures!
 echo $refl->getDocComment(); // fails
}

$anon();
