Bug description:  Passing objects as default function parameters

Description:
------------
Hey,

I've shown a function I'm trying to write that is giving me an error
because I can set an object as a default function parameter.

I don't know if this is a bug, or it wasn't intended to be possible but I
reckon it would be a good addition. I can't see a specific reason not to
have this functionality unless it runs into some issues such as namespaces
did.

Thanks :)

Reproduce code:
---------------
public function PadLeft ( Int32 $var1, Char $var2 = new Char ( ' ' ) ) {
// line 315
        try {
                $this->Value = str_pad($this->Value, $var1->Value, $var2->ToString(),
STR_PAD_LEFT);
                return( true );
        } catch ( xException $ex ) {
                return( $ex->False );
        }
}

Expected result:
----------------
I wasn't expecting to see the error anyway :p

I'd like to have the result I'm looking for returned if possible.

Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_NEW in
D:\www\root\objects\TMP2ct7ths5f1.php on line 315
