Description:
------------
If a class redefines a method of a superclass and does not match the method 
signature and 
the original signature contains an array, a notice about array to string 
conversion is 
also raised.

The notice is raised on either the first line of the subclass (class blah extends 
blah) 
or on the line containing the closing } for the class.

This seems to be caused by:
zend_error(E_STRICT, "Declaration of %s::%s() should be compatible with %s", 
ZEND_FN_SCOPE_NAME(child), child->common.function_name, method_prototype);
in Zend/zend_compile.c (line 3232 as at revision 318576).

If the notice is an expected result, I would expect it to occur on the line of 
the 
function prototype rather than the class opening or closing line, though I do not 
expect 
that notice at all as it appears to be more of PHP bug rather than an 
implementation 
problem.

The notice also appears if the error reporting level does not contain E_STRICT 
but a 
custom error handler is loaded. If there's no custom error handler and the 
reporting 
level does not contain E_STRICT, then the E_NOTICE is not displayed.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

class A {
        public static function test($arg = array()) {
        }
}

class B extends A {
        public static function test() {
        }
}


Expected result:
----------------
Strict Standards: Declaration of B::test() should be compatible with A::test($arg 
= Array) in /Users/simon/Sites/test.php on line 11

Actual result:
--------------
Notice: Array to string conversion in /Users/simon/Sites/test.php on line 11

Strict Standards: Declaration of B::test() should be compatible with A::test($arg 
= Array) in /Users/simon/Sites/test.php on line 11
