Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
It is just the way it works. If it sees it is coming from the right
context this call version doe snot enforce a static call. Instead it
will simply keep $this and be happy with it.

Because a non-static method should not be called statically! This
should also apply for a parents parent class! Class C and B should only
be able to call parent:: . If class C must access the method test() of
class A, class B shouldn't override the method test().

And why do you think this is a bug?

Description:
------------
I expected, that i cannot call a non-static method in a parent's parent
class with ParentClassName::method() from a child class. But it works
even on E_STRICT. I think this should be a bug!
Reproduce code:
---------------
class A {
private $myVar;
public function test() {
$this->myVar = 'test';
echo 'A::test()' . "\n";
}
}
class B extends A {
public function test() {
echo 'B::test()' . "\n";
}
}
class C extends B {
public function test()
{
echo 'C::test()' . "\n";
A::test();
}
}
$c = new C;
$c->test();
Expected result:
----------------
Non-static method A::test() should not be called statically
Actual result:
--------------
C::test
A::test
