Ok, it's implemented to work like that... less bad ;)

Well, if things don't behave diferent depending on scope then why
private exists anyway?
And the scope is being controlled already, that's why i get an fatal
error, right?
If the method is private, why it simple don't "think" it doesn't exist
when outside of class scope?

Maybe it don't make sense but...

class foo {
 private function bar() { }
 function __call($f,$a) {
   echo "called $f";
 }
}
$a = new foo;

// There ( ouside the class scope ) ...
// ... this exist as much ...
$a->bar();
// ... as this, right?
$a->bar1();

Even if it looks like a mess... it makes some sense, no?

Unless u say me that a class isn't a scope because I never understood
the php scopes, maybe u can recomend me a good article about it or
some link somewhere
