Bug description: Redefinition of static methods in subclasses
Description:
------------
Manual says that static members and methods cannot be redefined in
subclasses.
It seems that it's not completely true (at least with PHP 5.0.4 under
Windows XP), as redefining static methods in subclasses is allowed, and
works fine (i.e. without triggering errors even if error level includes
E_STRICT).
Reproduce code:
---------------
class Base
{
public static function foo()
{
return 'Foo...';
}
}
class Extended extends Base
{
public static function foo()
{
return 'Bar !!!';
}
}
echo Extended::foo();
Expected result:
----------------
An error, or the output of Base::foo()
Actual result:
--------------
It works, and prints 'Bar !!!'
