Re: [PHP] Binding object instances to static closures

Thanks Nathaniel for the clarification about 5.4. We are still on 5.3 (and
that only recently), so 5.4 is a ways off in our production systems.
However, I'll read up on this since it may be useful in offline tools.

I get why closures created inside static methods cannot be bound to an
instance . . . but those created *outside* an object method entirely *can*
be bound? That makes no sense! And yet it works.
