Awkward error using first-class callable syntax with missing function

Description

The following code:

<?php

'missing'(...);

Resulted in this output:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined function missing() 

But I expected this output instead:

Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Unable to create closure from undefined function missing() 

When using the first-class callable syntax on a missing function, the error message claims the user is calling a function. However, this should only be creating a closure.

I thought the (...) syntax would only try to create a closure. Does it actually try to call the function with a ... argument if it's not found?

If you use the original Closure::fromCallable() method, the error is different.

Closure::fromCallable('missing');

Uncaught TypeError: Failed to create closure from callable: function "missing" not found or invalid function name

PHP Version

8.1

Operating System

No response

Beginne damit, das PHP 8.1-Beispiel mit 'missing'(...); zu reproduzieren, und vergleiche seinen Fehler mit Closure::fromCallable('missing'). Verfolge die Verarbeitung eines First-Class-Callables für eine undefinierte Funktion; fertig ist es, wenn die Syntax einen Fehler bei der Closure-Erstellung meldet, statt zu behaupten, die Funktion sei aufgerufen worden.
