At least in latest HEAD, they don't.
excerpt from zend_register_functions (Zend/zend_api.c:1421-1627):
if (__get) {
if (__get->common.fn_flags & ZEND_ACC_STATIC) {
zend_error(error_type, "Method %s::%s() cannot be static", scope->name, __get->common.function_name);
}
(the same is repeated for the other methods)
So, it only check if the method is static or not.
And IMHO, it might be a good politic to declare those methods as private or protected to avoid external abuses.
