Description:
------------
PHP is great!  I love this language, and I apreciate the work of the developers ... you are all very awesome!

The following code works as I expect:
<?php
$var = "this" .
   "that" .
   "other\n";
print $var;
?>
thisthatother

When I use the concatenation operator in a class however I get a parse error.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class foo
{
   public static $var = "this" .
      "that" .
      "other\n";
}
print foo::$var;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
thisthatother


Actual result:
--------------
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting ',' or ';'
