Currently, I use this call

traceVariable( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'], '$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]' );

to pass a variable by reference to 'traceVariable' and by value a
description string.

Since the description string is very likely to be identical to the
source code (string) of the first parameter, I'd like to write this:

traceVariable( $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] );

Any ideas, how to get the literal expression (source) of a parameter,
which got passed to a method/function?
