If you want to execute a function on a pattern, you need to use the 
/e option on the pattern, and enclose the code to be executed in quotes.
Also, if $1 might contain quotes or backslashes in it, you'll
want to surround it with PSS().  Thus:

    Markup('mymu', 'inline',
      '/_mymu_ (.*?) _mymu_/e',
      "myFunc(PSS('$1'))");

See http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/CustomMarkup< especially the
section "Define a markup to call a custom function...".
