Haxe has a lot of the language features mentioned here... static typing, better namespace organization and support, etc. It's also incredibly quick to compile, and you can easily support older php libs through externs.
As a side note, there's also a Haxe target for javascript, meaning you can have a super nice modern language workflow for both client and server side on legacy php/javascript infrastructure.
