Bug description:Confusing error message when extending traits
Description:
------------
While I know it should not be possible to have a trait extend another
trait, the
error message is confusing, stating that you are trying to extend a class.
I understand that "use" is the correct answer to the problem the script is
trying
to solve.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
trait Foo { }
trait Bar extends Foo { }
Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: A trait (Bar) cannot extend a trait (Foo) in ...
Better yet:
Fatal error: A trait (Bar) cannot extend a trait (Foo), use "use" instead
in ...
or some such.
Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: A trait (Bar) cannot extend a class in ...
