Comment(by scribu):

 Replying to [comment:5 johnbillion]:
 > Pedantic improvement if this goes in: no need for `func_num_args` and
 `func_get_args` to be assigned to variables (as they're only used once
 each), they can be used in place.

 Yes, unfortunatly the PHP manual [http://php.net/func_get_args says]:

 > Note: Because this function depends on the current scope to determine
 parameter details, it cannot be used as a function parameter in versions
 prior to 5.3.0. If this value must be passed, the results should be
 assigned to a variable, and that variable should be passed.
