as a side note - using a function like debug_backtrace() seems to be a
mis-use -- the debug_ prefix is a pretty clear indication that this is
to retrieve info for helping you figure out what is wrong, and therefore
it probably not a good idea to write code that relies on its output in a
production env.

that probably wouldn't solve the problem unless you duplicate the whole
function...
what about doing this in the superclass
yourFunc( $className = '' )
{
if (empty($className)) {
$className = __CLASS__;
}
return parent::yourFunc( $className );
}
not perfect, but it would allow you to stack the classes and minimize
the code in the overloaded funcs. obviously the original func would use
the argument to determine which class it was called by. hopefully you
get the idea.

calling PHP5 lame is a little harsh - one 'missing' feature is not the
end of the world - and there are work around.
feature requests are done via the bugs DB:
http://bugs.php.net/
take the time to thoroughly investigate the DB for similar requests
first though, to avoid duplication. Also you may want to politely
inquire at php-internals@lists.php.net before you do so - possibly they
may have some clarification or could point you to earlier discussions
that explain the current developer stance.

well if you can write C then definitely - you write it, and submit a
patch - even if its not accepted you can roll your own version. :-)
