is there a function that one can use in (for example) an echo or print
command for debugging that will return the name of the function?

For instance

<?php

function abc(){
echo my_name_is();
return 0;
}

function def(){
echo my_name_is();
return 2;
}
<?

I guess I could hardcode the function name in the echo statement, but I
like messing around. :) I did look at php.net for a while but couldn't
find anything.
