This IS a bug!
Because according to PHP.net:
[...]is a token that allows access to static, constant, and overridden
properties
or methods of a class.[...]
This means that the "::" character should access the method or property
staticly.

The thing is it's not a static call. :: only defines the scope (hence its name,
"Scope Resolution Operator"), it doesn't determine whether the call is static
or it isn't.

This is ridiculous- this bug is not bogus, it's completely legitimate,
unexpected
behavior, and totally non documented. As a reasonable programmer, one expects a
static call to behave the same inside of a class as well as outside of a class.
How can we bring the "desired" behavior up for vote? I think that it's insane
to
not fix it.
