Bug description:Late static binding does not work via reflection

Description:
------------
When a static method is called through reflection, late static binding does
not work. Probably because the getMethod() returns the method associated to
the parent class.

Test script:
---------------
class A{
  public static function call(){
    static::callLate();
  }

  public static abstract function callLate();
}

class B{
  public static function callLate(){
    echo 'Late static binding';
  }
}

B::call();
$class = new ReflectionClass('B');
$class->getMethod('call')->invoke(null);

Expected result:
----------------
Late static binding
Late static binding

Actual result:
--------------
Late static binding
Cannot call abstract method B::callLate()
