New Comment:
$tmp =& $this is proper code (it can be dangerous, but this doesn't
mean improper).
Removing support for assignment and passing $this by reference will
break a lot of existing PHP scripts.

Description:
------------
Using =&, it is possible to modify $this with the constructor.
This shouldn't be allowed, just like for
$tmp = $this;
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class B {
function B() {
}
}
class A {
function A() {
$tmp =& $this;
var_dump($this); // outputs : object(A)
$tmp = new B();
var_dump($this); // outputs : object(B)
}
}
$a = new A();
var_dump($a); // outputs : object(A)
?>
Expected result:
----------------
object(A)#1 (0) {
}
object(A)#2 (0) {
}
object(A)#1 (0) {
}
// current result :
object(A)#1 (0) {
}
object(B)#2 (0) {
}
object(A)#1 (0) {
}
