I'm running PHP 5.3.0. I've found that the curly string syntax only works when the first character of the expression is $. Is there a way to include other types of expressions (function calls, etc)?

Trivial example:

<?php
$x = '05';
echo "{$x}"; // works as expected
echo "{intval($x)}"; // hoped for "5", got "{intval(05)}"
