How about this :
<?php
class BaseClass {
protected function A($f){
var_dump($this);
$this->$f();
}
}
class SubClass extends BaseClass {
private function B(){
echo 'hello, i dont show !';
}
public function C(){
$this->A('B');
}
}
$b = new SubClass();
$b->C('B');
?>
In this case, i'm calling SubClass:B() from SubClass context. At least,
that's how it should work : that's how it works in C, C#, etc...
In PHP 5.2.1 i'm still getting the same fatal error.

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php
You are calling a method from SubClass out of the BaseClass context.

Description:
------------
A derived class 'SubClass' cannot call a private method declared into
'SubClass' from the context of its parent class 'BaseClass'.
However, even if the private method is called from 'BaseClass', dumping
the variable $this shows the current class type is 'SubClass'.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class BaseClass {
public function A($f){
var_dump($this);
$this->$f();
}
}
class SubClass extends BaseClass {
private function B(){
echo 'hello, i dont show !';
}
}
$b = new SubClass();
$b->A('B');
?>
Expected result:
----------------
object(SubClass)#1 (0) { } hello, i dont show !
Actual result:
--------------
object(SubClass)#1 (0) { }
Fatal error: Call to private method SubClass::B() from context
'BaseClass' in C:\httpd\htdocs\pwidgets\test2.php on line 5
