This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time

Description:
------------
Tried using the final keyword on a class variable per the docs

Final Keyword

PHP 5 introduces the final keyword, which prevents child classes from
overriding a method or variable by prefixing the definition with final.


On windows system running 5.0.2 also on Linux running 5.0.1

<?php

class Foo
{
final $FooVersion;
}
?>

Returns:

Cannot declare property Foo::$FooVersion final, the final modifier is
allowed only for methods


Is this a bug or are the docs wrong?
