Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STATIC, expecting ')' in field_validation_date_validator.inc on line 24 [#1875272]

I installed 2.2, and tried to edit a Text field, and entered the 'Validation'page.
I get the following error:
Parse error: syntax error, unexpected T_STATIC, expecting ')' in ..\field_validation\field_validation_extras\plugins\validator\field_validation_date_validator.inc on line 24

The relevant code is:

  const  PATTERN = '/^(\d{4})-(\d{2})-(\d{2})$/';
  
  public function validate() {
    //The logic copied from Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\DateValidator
    if (!preg_match(static::PATTERN, $this->value, $matches) || !checkdate($matches[2], $matches[3], $matches[1])) {
    ...

1. Why is this date-validator invoked on a text field?

2. I don't understand the error in line 24, but line 23 can be simplified:

   public function validate() {
     //The logic copied from Symfony\Component\Validator\Constraints\DateValidator
-    if ($this->value !== '' && !is_null($this->value)) {
+    if (isset($this->value)  ) {
       if (!preg_match(static::PATTERN, $this->value, $matches) || !checkdate($matches[2], $matches[3], $matches[1])) {
         $this->set_error();
       }

I have tested it again, it works correctly.
I use PHP 5.3, Apache/2.2.21, WIndows7, MYSQL 5.5.16.

I enabled it with 5.2.17 and got the error (with 2.2).
I enabled it with 5.3.9 and got no error (with 2.2).
Is it a PHP-version thing? I use Acquia Dev Desktop on Windows 7.

EDIT Also, i saw that the file 'field_validation_date_validator.inc' is not included in the latest 2.x version.
Is it replaced with 'field_validation_date_range2_validator.inc' ?
