Subject: __call() magic method
From: dafneves@gmail.com ("Diogo Neves")

Hi all,

I'm emailling to ask why __call isn't called when you call a private
method from outside of function...

In my opinion, this error should exist, but when you haven't an __call
function, because outside the scope of class it only should see public
methods, then if it don't exist it should call the __call
Fatal error:  Call to private method user::print_user() from context
'' in /home/diogo/Documents/devspace/mangas.dev/index.php on line 47

Of course my opinion only counts what it counts, not too much I believe :)

Anyway, it's the correct beaviour or its bugie?
Make my opinion some sense?
Is there anyway of implement or own magic method that gets called
before any method in a given class?
