Change to function call semantics in PHP 5.1?

In PHP 5.0.x, I can chain function calls like this:

$obj->method()->anotherMethod();

In PHP 5.1.x, this code results in an error:

parse error, unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR in ...

I've looked through the change log for 5.1 but didn't see
anything relevant.

Was this an intentional change?

Thanks,

Mark

Uh, this works fine in tons of our code...
