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

This is a nifty case: Only "simple" classes are fully available after compile time, classes with "complexer" things (interface,traits, ...) will be bound and made available at runtime in the place where they are declared, else constructs like

  <?php 
  include 'someinterface.php';
  class C implements someinterfae {}
  ?>

won't work. same with traits.
