This is for JavaScript/ActionScript compatibility. `var` in either of these is akin to temp. and static is a `function` qualifier.
We don't need it, unless we want to use ActionScript 3. Seems good enough for me.

e: So I guess I should say (since it probably makes more sense), Stefan is saying that e.g. the ActionScript
PHP Code:
static function foo() {
var bar = "baz";
return bar;
}
The static/var keywords here are ignored so that the graal engine can handle it. So your errors would arise from var being ignored (you'd have no legal lvalue in assignment thru var = "something").
