PHPUnit Mock Objects and Static Methods

I am looking for the best way to go about testing the following static method (specifically using a Doctrine Model):

class Model_User extends Doctrine_Record
{
    public static function create($userData)
    {
        $newUser = new self();
        $newUser->fromArray($userData);
        $newUser->save();
    }
}

Ideally, I would use a mock object to ensure that fromArray (with the supplied user data) and save were called, but that's not possible as the method is static.

Any suggestions?
