Bug description:Constants in and among classes, in simulating structs -and- 
static variables

//Simulate Struct

class VolumeWeight

{

    const GRAMS = 'gm';

    const MILILITRE = 'ml';    

}



- or -



class VolumeWeight

{

    public static $GRAMS = 'gm';

    public static $MILILITRE = 'ml';    

}



Then have another (extended) struct



class WaterBottle

{

    public static $ITEM_ID = 1324;

    public static $ITEM_COST = 0.23;



    public static $UNIT = VolumeWeight::$MILILITRE; //Yields an error



}



- BUT -



class WaterBottle

{

    public static $ITEM_ID = 1324;

    public static $ITEM_COST = 0.23;



    public static $UNIT = VolumeWeight::MILILITRE; //Works (from constant
class)



}



- AND -



class WaterBottle

{

    const ITEM_ID = 1324;

    const ITEM_COST = 0.23;



    const UNIT = VolumeWeight::MILILITRE; //Error (from constant class)

}



How weird is that? Anything I can do?
