How do you understand visibility ?
of course $priv is visible, but **in the context of class C** as you
defined it as "private" !!! (hint, hint)
$this in your code is(as expected) an instance of class D not of class
C ;-)
if you make $priv "protected" it will work as expected (hint,hint)

Description:
------------
The documentation states that "all visible properties will be used for
the iteration" when foreach'ing over an object.
Below is a case where this is not true.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class C {
private $priv = "A private variable";
function doLoop() {
echo "Proof that the private is visible: " . $this->priv . "\n";
foreach ($this as $k=>$v) {
echo "The private is visible so should be accessed in the
loop:\n";
echo "-> $k: $v";
}
}
}
class D extends C {}
$myD = new D;
$myD->doLoop();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
Proof that the private is visible: A private variable
The private is visible so should be accessed in the loop:
-> priv: A private variable
Actual result:
--------------
Proof that the private is visible: A private variable
