Description:
------------
Hi,

if you define a ObjectType in Argument-List of a Method, the Line-Number (in Error-Message) points to the Method and not to the Line the argument is set.

This makes debugging very hard ;-)

Bye,
  Matthias

Reproduce code:
---------------
01: <?PHP
02: class Test {
03:	
04:	public static function testmethod (Test $obj) {
05:	}
06: }
07:
08: $string = "I'm a string";
09: Test::testmethod ($string);
10: ?>

Expected result:
----------------
Fatal error: Argument 1 must be an object of class Test in test.php on line 9


Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Argument 1 must be an object of class Test in test.php on line 4

The line number is not wrong it is simply the method's line number instead of the caller's line number you expected. So this is a feature request.

hhvm has different results, but current PHP produces useful error message for this.
