call_function() and callers()

Using call_function() to call a builtin which calls verbs (move(), specifically, but probably create() and recycle() too) causes the callers() list to be
erroneous.  When I do call_function("move",#2,#11), #11's enterfunc sees
the callers() stack as {{#-1, "call_function", #-1, #-1, #2}, ... }.
It would be a lot more consistent and acurate perhaps if it looked like
{{#-1, "move", #-1, #-1, #2}, {#-1, "call_function", #-1, #-1, #2}, ... } IMO.

Sorry to spam you with another bug report just as you're trying to finally
finish off your work on the server Pavel, but I thought I'd point it out
since it is somewhat inconsistent.
