Description:
------------
$this is available inside a statically called mehod when it is called
from inside an object not an instance of this class

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Foo {
    function foo() {
        if ( isset( $this ) ) {
            return '$this available';
        } else {
            return '$this NOT available';
        }
    }
}
class Bar {
    function callFoo() {
        echo 'Foo::foo(): ' . Foo::foo() . "\n";
    }
}

$foo = new Bar();
$foo->callFoo();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Foo::foo(): $this NOT available

Actual result:
--------------
Foo::foo(): $this available
