Static variables aren't supported by Zephir

[valVk]

Will it be supported or I have to find a way out?

[ovr]

@valVk What does it mean static var? Maybe const?

[steffengy]

@ovr that's something completely different http://php.net/manual/en/language.variables.scope.php#language.variables.scope.static
