Bug description:  Lifting reserved keyword restriction for method names

Description:
------------
Suggestion:

Wouldn't it be possible to lift the reserved keyword restriction for
method names?

It seems to me that there shouldn't be any namespace conflict with the
core PHP language.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

class a {
   function eval() {
      // Do something...
   }
}

?>

Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: parse error, unexpected T_EVAL, expecting T_STRING
