The thing is it's not a static call. :: only defines the scope (hence its name, "Scope
Resolution Operator"), it doesn't determine whether the call is static or it isn't.

This is ridiculous- this bug is not bogus, it's completely legitimate, unexpected 
behavior, and totally non documented. As a reasonable programmer, one expects a 
static call to behave the same inside of a class as well as outside of a class.

How can we bring the "desired" behavior up for vote? I think that it's insane to 
not fix it.

Closing as bogus, see http://www.mail-archive.com/internals@lists.php.net/msg52338.html
