spl_autoload first strtolowers the class name before the lookup, so basically if you use spl_autoload("MyClass") it will look for myclass.php.

I'm not sure "fixing it" right now is a good idea since it would break BC.

Breaking BC is not an option.

I would kindly ask the PHP developer team to reconsider this bug. There are enough 
alternatives to fix this behaviour without breaking BC; see bug report #48129.
