If we remove the name T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM for :: then learning how to correctly pronounce it won't be fun anymore!

I realize some people aren't fond of this token, but it's at the level of harmlessness - and at least to some a part of the PHP folklore - that we should find better things to do than take another stab at removing it.
