Summary: Different return value between within or without an

This bug can be killed. When writing it I realized my mistake. When the
get_class
method is invoked with the null parameter, it returns the class of where it's
being called, hence "Toto".
Not a bug!

Description:
------------
I would expect a getter to return the same value whether it's being called
within
or without an object.
In my example, my __get function always returns null. If it's being called from
outside the object, it behaves properly and returns null. If it's being called
from inside, it returns the object itself.
Here I used the __get function to make it even clearer, but it does the same
regardless of the presence of that function.
Test script:
---------------
<?php
class Toto{
function __get($p){
return null;
}
function doit(){
echo get_class($this->wololo); //this will print "TOTO", but why?
}
}
$t = new Toto();
$t->doit();
echo "\n";
echo get_class($t->wololo); //this will not work, which is what I expect
echo "\n";
Expected result:
----------------
PHP Warning: get_class() called without object from outside a class in
/home/fmlheureux/test.php on line 9
PHP Warning: get_class() called without object from outside a class in
/home/fmlheureux/test.php on line 16
Actual result:
--------------
Toto
PHP Warning: get_class() called without object from outside a class in
/home/fmlheureux/test.php on line 16
