	/**
	* Given a user-defined PHP function, create a PHP 'wrapper' function that can
	* be exposed as xmlrpc method from an xmlrpc_server object and called from remote
	* clients (as well as its corresponding signature info).
	*
	* Since php is a typeless language, to infer types of input and output parameters,
	* it relies on parsing the javadoc-style comment block associated with the given
	* function. Usage of xmlrpc native types (such as datetime.dateTime.iso8601 and base64)
	* in the @param tag is also allowed, if you need the php function to receive/send
	* data in that particular format (note that base64 encoding/decoding is transparently
	* carried out by the lib, while datetime vals are passed around as strings)
	*
	* Known limitations:
	* - requires PHP 5.0.3 +
	* - only works for user-defined functions, not for PHP internal functions
	*   (reflection does not support retrieving number/type of params for those)
	* - functions returning php objects will generate special xmlrpc responses:
	*   when the xmlrpc decoding of those responses is carried out by this same lib, using
	*   the appropriate param in php_xmlrpc_decode, the php objects will be rebuilt.
	*   In short: php objects can be serialized, too (except for their resource members),
	*   using this function.
	*   Other libs might choke on the very same xml that will be generated in this case
	*   (i.e. it has a nonstandard attribute on struct element tags)
	* - usage of javadoc @param tags using param names in a different order from the
	*   function prototype is not considered valid (to be fixed?)
	*
	* Note that since rel. 2.0RC3 the preferred method to have the server call 'standard'
	* php functions (ie. functions not expecting a single xmlrpcmsg obj as parameter)
	* is by making use of the functions_parameters_type class member.
	*
	* @param string $funcname the name of the PHP user function to be exposed as xmlrpc method; array($obj, 'methodname') and array('class', 'methodname') are ok too
	* @param string $newfuncname (optional) name for function to be created
	* @param array $extra_options (optional) array of options for conversion. valid values include:
	*        bool  return_source when true, php code w. function definition will be returned, not evaluated
	*        bool  encode_php_objs let php objects be sent to server using the 'improved' xmlrpc notation, so server can deserialize them as php objects
	*        bool  decode_php_objs --- WARNING !!! possible security hazard. only use it with trusted servers ---
	*        bool  suppress_warnings  remove from produced xml any runtime warnings due to the php function being invoked
	* @return false on error, or an array containing the name of the new php function,
	*         its signature and docs, to be used in the server dispatch map
	*
	* @todo decide how to deal with params passed by ref: bomb out or allow?
	* @todo finish using javadoc info to build method sig if all params are named but out of order
	* @todo add a check for params of 'resource' type
	* @todo add some trigger_errors / error_log when returning false?
	* @todo what to do when the PHP function returns NULL? we are currently returning an empty string value...
	* @todo add an option to suppress php warnings in invocation of user function, similar to server debug level 3?
	* @todo if $newfuncname is empty, we could use create_user_func instead of eval, as it is possibly faster
	* @todo add a verbatim_object_copy parameter to allow avoiding the same obj instance?
