@dagguh: static members in PHP are inherited and it is by design, so you can get used to it.
It's just a PHP's nature. The problem starts when this behaviour causes bugs like the one
described above.

Anyway the issue seems to be fixed in 7.0 (checked with 7.0.0-RC5).

This is a bug. No questions about it.

This bug is caused by: https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=49472
The fix is all wrong. PHP developers do not seem to understand basic concepts in OOP. Const is a
static member. Being static means NO 
POLYMORPHISM. They should NEVER BE INHERITED. Each class/interface should be able to define their
own static members DISREGARDING any 
possible class hierarchy.

How come a feature request? This is an obvious bug.
