No, that is NOT BOGUS i think, there is something went wrong, and it
took me quite a while finding the error in the app (using strace etc),
and quite a while yet to reproduce this behavior with a small code
snippet that will SEGFAULT.
Note: Currently only tested on 5.2.11 and 5.2.0-8+etch15
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Foo
{
function __call($f,$a)
{
echo("__call activated on class: ".__CLASS__.PHP_EOL);
}
function write($text) {
echo( 'Foo: '.$text.PHP_EOL );
}
function debug($text) {
return call_user_func_array(
array(self,'write'),
array($text,1)
);
}
}
class Bar {
function __construct()
{
Foo::debug("foobar");
}
}
class Baz {
function __construct()
{
Foo::debug("foobar");
}
// here he dies...
function __call($f,$a)
{
echo("__call activated on class: ".__CLASS__.PHP_EOL);
}
}
$bar = new Bar();
$baz = new Baz(); // will cause php to die
?>
Expected result:
----------------
1. Calling non-static function Foo::debug() in Bar::__construct()
a) should throw an function not found error while "self::" is used, as
the engine does a lookup in Bar and does not find any function.
b) should not make the usage of Foo::__call() as it does not interact
in the scope of Class Foo finally?
2. Calling Foo::debug() in Baz::__construct() in Baz::__construct()
a) should use __call as it is defined in Baz, and should rely on the
scope of this class and not the non static called class Foo.. Uncomment
Foo::__call to let the whole thing get more weird, as the text
"Baz::foobar" is normally echoed if Baz::__call is only defined there
(only defined!)
b) should never make the usage of Foo::call() as it does not interact
in the scope of Class Foo finally?
Actual result:
--------------
d...@*:~$ php test.php
__call activated on class: Foo
Segmentation fault
d...@*:~$
Actual result without Foo::__call():
------------------------------------
d...@*:~$ php phptest.php
PHP Warning: call_user_func_array(): Unable to call self::write() in *
on line *
Foo: foobar
d...@*:~$

If i uncomment Bar::__call, i get the text "foobar" and not "__called!"
or any other error. That is how 5.2.11 (not tried another version)
handles it here currently.. I will try others later.
So, if self:: does rely on the scope of the object we came from
(because we have NOT defined the function as static), Foo::__call should
never be called if self:: or $this is used in Foo, or am i wrong?
It is something like PHP uses Bar::__call if it exists and if not
Foo::__call(), hence we are not extending the class...
Output if Bar::__call commented: "foobar"
Output if Bar::__call uncommented: "__called!"

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
If you comment out the __call magic you'll get pretty clear error
message why and what goes wrong.

Description:
------------
I don't really understand the following situation.. Made some comments
in the code to explain it. There is something wrong with class and
Object scopes: calling a non-static function of another class inside an
object will cause __call (in dependence of existence in the other class)
to different behaviors when using self:: instead of __CLASS__ in the
non-static method.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class Foo
{
function __call($f,$a)
{
die("__called!\n");
}
function write($text) {
echo($text);
}
// defining debug as static will cause
// the whole thing to work properly
function debug($text) {
return call_user_func_array(
// "self" acts like making a lookup in
// class Bar, fails and then runs the
// magic method in this class, but why?
// i dont have extended the Bar class...
// __CLASS__ will work, but dont work for
// extended classes, as self should do it
array(self,'write'),
array($text,1)
);
}
}
class Bar {
function __construct()
{
Foo::debug("foobar\n");
}
// uncomment the following to make Foo::debug()
// throw the text foobar, ehm? note that we do NOT
// echo any content here... that is something like
// inheritance it should not do? will echo "foobar"..
/*
function __call($f,$a)
{
}
*/
}
$bar = new Bar(); // will cause php to die
Expected result:
----------------
foobar
Actual result:
--------------
__called!
