Parse Error: Unexpected T_OBJECT_OPERATOR

I am receiving the following parse error on line 16: 'syntax error, unexpected T_STRING'. That being said, the following block of codes parses correctly with PHP 5.4.16, however, does not parse correctly with PHP 4.4.9. Thoughts?

To me, the error is suggesting that the interface keyword was not supported in PHP 4.4.9, however, I could not find that in PHP's change log.

interface iA { // line 16
  public function methodA();
  public function methodB();
  public function methodC();
}

EDIT (providing full snippet)

<?php

// a comment.
// a comment.
// a comment.
// a comment.
// a comment.
// a comment.

// a comment.
if (!defined('PRODUCT_ENV')) {
  exit;
}

// a comment.
interface iA {
  public function methodA();
  public function methodB();
  public function methodC();
}

include(PRODUCT_PWD . PRODUCT_IMPLES . 'anotherfile.php');

Please have a look at the New Object Model section of the Migrating from PHP 4 to PHP 5.0.x chapter of the PHP manual. Documentation of the old PHP/4 object model has been moved to the Classes and Objects (PHP 4) appendix.

PHP/5 was released exactly 10 years ago (July 2004) so it's pretty rare to find support for PHP 4 anywhere.
