I understood the problem and your patch, I also agree what it fixes the problem 
for this particular case.

Unfortunately, I afraid that it may break some applications, because it may 
make constant resolution early in the moment, when such constants were not 
defined yet. For example your patch is going to break the following script.

<?php
class A {
        public $x = X;
}

class B extends A {
}

const X = 1;

$b = new B;
var_dump($b);
?>

I think the problem may be solved by substituting "self" and "parent" by actual 
class names at compile-time. It must be quite easy to do it for "self" (in 
zend_do_fetch_constant or in zend_do_declare_property), but not so easy for 
"parent" (we may use CG(parent_class_name) to solve it).

I have validated that the patch solves our use case (and the test case in this 
bug).  Thanks Mike!

@dmitry, can you have a look at the , please? 

The condition could actually be simplified to

 if (ce->type == ZEND_USER_CLASS) ...

Thank you.

'Have a preference' should have said 'I have a preference'.  Certainly not 
intending for PHP to add some new INI option or something to change how 
static:: 
and self:: behave. :)

Also, have confirmed this on 5.4.4 and CentOS in addition to Ubuntu and 5.4.10, 
both with and without extensions like APC loaded.
