I, for one, was surprised that this does what it does with PHP 5.3 and
PHP 5.4 (do not have older version of PHP hand).
This is how FETCH_CLASS works now - when it has an object in where it
expects class name, it uses object's class. We could call toString() instead
but that might be even more surprising.
Well, FETCH_CLASS has always worked like that, but previously (<5.3)
variables for class references were only allowed as part of the "new"
statement,
e.g. new $obj; The semantic remains the same, only that now variables
are also allowed for :: calls (since 5.3).
