Description:
------------
ReflectionProperty::__toString() convert also value of property to string and it may fail, see https://3v4l.org/rfoGl



Test script:
---------------
<?php

class A
{
	public static $x;
}

A::$x = new stdClass;

$rp = new ReflectionProperty('A', 'x');
echo $rp;

Expected result:
----------------
Property [ public static $x ]

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Object of class stdClass could not be converted to string

Fails during

zval *default_value = property_get_default(prop);
if (!Z_ISUNDEF_P(default_value)) {
    smart_str_appends(str, " = ");
    if (format_default_value(str, default_value, prop->ce) == FAILURE) {
        return;
    }
}

Apparently it's trying to get a default value but is actually coming up with the current value.
