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

\'Impl\' is a random string, reflection has no clue where it comes from and which namespaces might be involved. Please use the full name or __NAMESPACE__ constant.
