Bug #64761 [Com]: rebinding of closures doesn't work when they are declared in a static method

So instead of if ((newthis != NULL) && (closure->func.common.fn_flags & ZEND_ACC_STATIC)) { zend_error(E_WARNING, "Cannot bind an instance to a static closure"); } it should change the scope of the closure (as the bindTo will provide an object to bind to, which implicitly changes the context of the closure. Since the closure is effectively recreated, it shouldn't be an issue changing the scope while doing that.
