We can try to store "caller_scope" in execute_data.
Thanks. Dmitry.
Rewrote the patch to use execute_data to store caller_scope. I have not
renamed any functions or keywords (still using static::) as I did not
see any consensus on that yet.
Please review the implementation of caller_scope and I can take care of
the naming issues when names are decided on.
patch attached and also available at
http://test.ft11.net/_mlively/late-static-binding.patch
It would be nice if the patch in PAT could be changed to reference this
new version if the appropriate people have time.
