Updated example script that uses new method names:

➜  ~  cat test.php 
<?php
class Foo {
    const bar = '...';

    public function baz($bar = self::bar) {
    }
}

$m = new ReflectionMethod('Foo', 'baz');
$p = $m->getParameters();

foreach ($p as $_p) {
    var_dump($_p->isDefaultValueConstant());

    if ($_p->isDefaultValueConstant()) {
        var_dump($_p->getDefaultValueConstantName());
    }
}

➜  ~  php test.php 
bool(true)
string(9) "self::bar"

Can we at least merge the patch into master? Once it's there we can think about 
merging it into PHP 5.4 for PHP 5.4.2.

Not very likely for 5.4.1, doesn't seem to be a critical bug. For 5.4.2, maybe.

Any chance this pull request will be merged into PHP 5.4.1? Thanks.

Hi, pierrick & sebastian:
   I have create another patch for this request. it differ's in:

   - rename defaultValueIsConstant to isDefaultValueConstant to match bool 
return values's is* method naming.
   - handle global constant.
   - refactor code to remove duplicate.
   - add 3 tests for it.

and I've make test everything looks fine.

please review it for me.

Thanks.
