ZE decides if a variable have to be fetched from the global scope at compile
time checking predefined list of super-global variables.
The variable fetching by name (e.g. $$name) is always done from local scope.
Of course it's possible to extend executor to check for list of super-global
variables at run-time, but it'll introduce significant slowdown for each fetch
by name. I really don't like it.

When I tried to obfuscate a part of code I was surprised by this strange
behariour. Of course, current implementation is correct on the one hand. But on
the other hand the situation looks funny: this way is allowad, and this too,
but this is not.
