At least it works for 5.0.5-dev:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/php-cvs $ php -r 'class T { protected function
__construct() {} static function test() { return new T;} } var_dump(T::test());'
make: `sapi/cli/php' is up to date.
object(T)#1 (0) {
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/php-cvs $ ../PHP_5_0/sapi/cli/php -r 'class T {
protected function __construct() {} static function test() { return new T;} }
var_dump(T::test());'
object(T)#1 (0) {
}
[EMAIL PROTECTED] /usr/src/php-cvs $ ../PHP_5_0/sapi/cli/php -v
PHP 5.0.5-dev (cli) (built: Apr 7 2005 17:24:12) (DEBUG)
