BC break detected:

<?php
{
    echo "foo\n";
    return "bar";
};

echo "baz\n";
return 42;
?>

The {} would probably be a closure that is not assigned to anything
while the current behaviour is to print "foo" and exit while returning
"bar".

-1 since it only saves 10 chars ("function()") without real added value.
