static call of non-static method?

Hi i was wondering why i can call a class method, by double colon.
without declaring it static.

this is my test

class Test_1
{
public function hello()
{
echo 'Hello';
}
}
Test_1::hello();

This behaviour is for compatibility with php4. It raises a E_STRICT
error in php5 and will be fatal error in php6.
