Hi Etienne: > To me it seems similar to assigning $this, only here it is via special > closure syntax. Since this code is no longer necessary, and might conflict > with the rebinding of $this, the error makes sense IMHO. A clearer error message seems appropriate. It should indicate that use($this) is inappropriate, but that $this can be used. Something _like_ "$this is available without being declared."
