Description:
------------
I wrote a small class (named Mysql) that extends mysqli, but when I make a new Mysql(), it returns :

Fatal error: Can not call constructor in .... which corresponds to line with parent::__construct

It seems that we can just override mysqli methods, but not the constructor. I copy paste my code below.

I found someone who recently reported this problem there : http://www.rb21.com/news/index.php?t=rview&th=40368 

and didnt get any response, so I really think it's a bug.

(I'm using PHP5 stable with mysqli, without mysql, and with mysql 4.1.3-beta libraries)

Reproduce code:
---------------
class Mysql extends mysqli {

	static $db_host="*";
	static $db_user="*";
	static $db_pass="*";
	static $db_name="*";
	
	function __construct() {
		parent::__construct(Mysql::$db_host, Mysql::$db_user, Mysql::$db_pass, Mysql::$db_name);
	}
	
	function query($query) {
	     return parent::query($query);
	}

}a

Note that it was working fine with my PHP5 RC2 and the man who reported http://www.rb21.com/news/index.php?t=rview&th=40368 tells it was also working fine with RC3

So I use the mysqli procedurial methods in my class (which doesnt extend mysqli anymore) with a global $link variable. Works fine, but is not very "PHP5 like".
