Quoting Christian Weiske <cweiske@cweiske.de>:It is a bug in 5.3, I'll convince them (it's the president's job to do this kind of thing). Don't forget - 5.3 doesn't even have a beta planned, and is still fluid. Gregplease have a look at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=13017 in php 5.3, calling a method statically with call_user_func(array($class, $method)) will fail if it is not declared static with the keyword. This is true for the validatexml functions in pear installer tasks.I still don't understand why PHP 5.3 is making this change and how it's not a bug in PHP: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=43231 I'm all for moving to PHP 5 only with new code, but this is just a pointless change as far as I can tell. If you agree with me, please update the bug and maybe someone will listen.
