Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

That\'s a performance consideration, we don\'t have to do a class lookup nd don\'t need to trigger __autoload in that case.
