Not necessarily, it might just be a bug. It would greatly help me if you
could send me a zip/tar file with the three classes A, B and C from your
description above and then file a bugreport with this zip file as
attachment to http://bugs.xdebug.org . I'll have a look at it then and I
won't forget about it either.
