Description:
------------
Interface method override inherited method and implemented in a trait causes fatal error

Test script:
---------------
interface InterfaceY {
    public function y(): string;
}

trait TraitY {
    public function y(): string {
    }
}

class X {
    public function y() {
    }
}

class Y extends X implements InterfaceY {
    use TraitY;
}


Expected result:
----------------
No fatal error. Method Y in TraitY is well defined

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error:  Declaration of X::y() must be compatible with Y::y(): string


PS


__No fatal error__ when:


class Y extends X implements InterfaceY {
    use TraitY;
    public function y(): string {
    }
}

It is not "well defined": X's y() must also have the string return type declaration to be compatible.

I wrote, that method Y in TraitY is well defined and it is according to InterfaceY


No fatal error when method public y():string is defined in the class body not only in a trait. What's the difference?

    class Y extends X implements InterfaceY {
        use TraitY;
        public function y(): string {

        }
    }

Oh, I see what you mean. The trait's method should overwrite the inherited method, and since stuff like https://3v4l.org/dCZ9h works without the trait, using the trait should also be allowed.

Looks like this fix introduced behaviour changes for prototype methods, see https://3v4l.org/LLebD
