Not a bug.
Inside the static method, the calling scope is A. The scope of
instanceMethod is also A.
Protected methods are accessible whenever their scope and the calling
scope are in the same class hierarchy.

Description:
------------
When I call a protected instance method of an object inside a class
method of "the same type" I'd like to have an error.
The example explain:
Test script:
---------------
class A {
protected function instanceMethod()
{
echo 'Instance method called, but it is not right because instance
method is protected<br />';
}
public static function staticMethod()
{
echo 'Static method called<br />';
$a = new A();
$a->instanceMethod();
}
}
A::staticMethod();
Expected result:
----------------
That was generated an error to access the protected method
Actual result:
--------------
Static method called
Instance method called, but it is not right because instance method is
protected
