This isn't supposed to work (class-var initing is not allowed for non-scalar (for example
array) values).

It is funny that it turns out to work this way, a parse-error would be better IMO.

But it is not a bug, changing status to feedback.

It is in the manual somewhere that this isn't allowed, try language -> classes and object

The following piece of code doesn't work:

<?
    define ('A', 20);

    class B
    {
	var $a = array(A => 10);
    }

    $b = new B();
    var_dump($b);
?>

It produces:

object(b)(1) {
  ["a"]=>
  array(1) {
    ["A"]=>
    int(10)
  }
}

which is unexpected (at least for me).
