Wolfgang pointed out a few days ago that we can also use an anonymous 
function:

Markup('name', 'where', 'pattern', function ($m) { return ... ; } );

This requires php 5.3 or later.

We can use an anonymous function here too (although I have not tested this):

Markup('name', 'where', 'pattern', function ($m) use (&$pagename) { 
return ... ; } );

See http://nz1.php.net/manual/en/functions.anonymous.php

The advantage of Petko's approach is that it works with any version of php.
