While offcourse a better idea, one might want to adress an already existing
PHP function, where the behaviour cannot be altered easily. But in that
case, a simple call_user_func_array() in the code itself should suffice,
instead of making it a different function.
We might have better insight if the OP could explain what the function
should actually do.
