Description:
------------
abstract static functions aren't allowed anymore, but if they can be inherited they IMHO should be allowed to be made abstract

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
abstract class foo
{
	abstract static public function bar();
}

class bar extends foo
{
	static public function bar()
	{
		
	}
}
?>

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Static function foo::bar() cannot be abstract

Marcus, if this change was intentional, we need to add a note to the NEWS file and fix the docs appropriately.

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
