Description:
------------
PHP5 (HEAD) complains when a class has a method named print(). Looks like the yacc grammar have to modified to allow that. The example code works without problems with 4.3.5-dev

Reproduce code:
---------------
php -r 'class a { function print(){}}'

Expected result:
----------------
no error

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Parse error:  parse error, unexpected T_PRINT, expecting T_STRING in Command line code on line 1

I'm not sure how it could have worked with 4.3.5-dev.. - T_PRINT and the associated grammer havent changed since it was first checked into CVS....

next time have to double check. The fault was mine (hmm).
