Description:
------------
When you call parent::method() and there is a static variable in this, the value returned to all inherited objects is the same

Test script:
---------------
class A
{
	function a()
	{
		static $i;
		
		if (!$i)
		{
			$i = $this->value;
		}
		
		return $i;
	}
}

class B extends A
{
	public $value = 'B';
}

class C extends A
{
	public $value = 'C';
	
	function a()
	{
		return parent::a();
	}
}

$b = new B;
echo $b->a();

$c = new C;
echo $c->a();

Expected result:
----------------
BC

Actual result:
--------------
BB

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Static variables will persist their values across every call. *Every* call.

Ok thank you

My test was distorted because of "a" method is the A class construct too.
Sorry, my bad
