Thank you for this bug report. To properly diagnose the problem, we
need a short but complete example script to be able to reproduce
this bug ourselves. 

A proper reproducing script starts with <?php and ends with ?>,
is max. 10-20 lines long and does not require any external 
resources such as databases, etc. If the script requires a 
database to demonstrate the issue, please make sure it creates 
all necessary tables, stored procedures etc.

Please avoid embedding huge scripts into the report.

Description:
------------
The problem is that the same script worked in php5.2.6, but in php5.3
it results in a "Fatal error: Cannot declare self-referencing constant
'n61' in ..."

There is an array that uses many constants to set the array with
values. If I execute a method of the class this error message stops the
execution..but the line of the code has nothing todo with this array!
strange error... just let me send my test code, u will see it yourself.
If i modify the array, remove the lines that php is complain about,
some lines and so on.. it works.. but these lines are not differnt to
the ohter lines..!? I don't understand it.

Also tried with latest cvs snapshot

Reproduce code:
---------------
I have a test script, but I don't wanna publish the code... May I send
it directly to a php developer?

Expected result:
----------------
like in php5.2.6 this code should work!

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Cannot declare self-referencing constant 'n61' in
/..../test.php on line 132
