Using expressions to assign PHP static variables

OK. The PHP manual explicitly states you CANNOT use an expression when assigning to a static variable.
You can, however, do this:
class MyClass {
public static $a = 1;
public static $b;
public static function init() {
self::$b = self::$a + 1;
}
}
MyClass::init();
Nifty eh?
