Description:
------------

PHP 7.3.11 (cli) (built: Oct 24 2019 11:29:52) ( NTS )
PHPUnit 8.4.2

This appears to be caused reflecting multiple files in PHP 7.3 (not 7.2 or 7.4)

Reduced test case:

<?php
  
trait T {
    private $prop;
}
class C1 {
    /** Doc comment */
    private $prop;
}
class C2 extends C1 {
}
class C3 extends C2 {
    use T;
}

C3 has an inherited, non-duplicated shadow property that we're trying to release. I've fixed something similar before, but apparently not for the trait binding case.

Doesn't occur on 7.2 because shadow properties were duplicate there, doesn't occur on 7.4 because it does not use shadow properties.
