Description:
------------
On the following manual page:
http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.oop5.paamayim-nekudotayim.php

Example 19.13 gives the code listed below. This causes a parse error.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class OtherClass extends MyClass
{
    public static $my_static = 'static var';

    public static function doubleColon() {
        echo parent::CONST_VALUE . "\n";
        echo self::$my_static . "\n";
    }
}

$classname = 'OtherClass';
echo $classname::doubleColon();

OtherClass::doubleColon();
?> 

Expected result:
----------------
I would expect $classname::doubleColon() call to succeed according to the docs.

The alternative [call_user_func(array($classname, 'doubleColon'))] is not quite as neat in code.

Judging by comments on the above linked page this has not worked since 2005!

Actual result:
--------------
PHP Parse error:  syntax error, unexpected T_PAAMAYIM_NEKUDOTAYIM, expecting ',' or ';' in file.php on line 13
