i experienced this problem, too:
Sample Code:
------------
<?php

function foo()
{
throw new Exception();
}

try {
foo();
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo __LINE__, '<br />';
}

try {
call_user_func('foo');
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo __LINE__, '<br />';
}

try {
call_user_func_array('foo', array());
} catch(Exception $e) {
echo __LINE__, '<br />';
}

?>

Expected Result
---------------

17
23

Actual Result
-------------
11
17

Warning: call_user_func_array() [function.call-user-func-array]: Unable

The fixed code:

<?php

function test($test) {
throw new Exception("This is a " . $test);
}

call_user_func_array("test", array("test"));

?>

Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves.

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external
resources such as databases, etc.

If possible, make the script source available online and provide
an URL to it here. Try avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Description:
------------
If I throw an exception in a function previously called by
call_user_func_array, It produces a warning saying:

Unable to call (the function name)

But the function was correctly called. The same situation
doesn't occur if I use call_user_func instead.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

function test($test) {
throw new Exception("This is a " . $test);
}

call_user_func_array("test", array("test"));


Expected result:
----------------
