Calling of a nonexisting function was made an error in the following commit:

Interesting; the low level function apply_svalue() still exists and
allows calling of integers, but it is not used for Pike code, which
instead uses mega_apply(APPLY_SVALUE, ...), which seems to never have
allowed calling of integers.

Note also that f_call_function() in µLPC 1.0E-30 didn't allow
calling of integers, and generated the error "Call to non-function value.".
