Description:
------------
PHP 7.0.0-dev

Namespaces used to be case insensitive in PHP 5.6, but they are case sensitive now. Not sure if the desired behavior, but will cause fatal errors if there is a case mismatch.

Example: Acme\Sitebundle will not be found in the folder is named Acme/SiteBundle

The case-insensitivity of namespaces is supposed to be kept for
PHP 7.0.0. I can't reproduce any change in this regard with latest
master (06ef3aa6b0), see <http://3v4l.org/vPR24> for the code I
used.

With regard to autoloading, I can't detect a behavioral change,
either. The namespace identifier is passed to the autoload
function in the letter case its written in the source code (see
<http://3v4l.org/Am1Fv>).

Can you please post a test script that shows the behavior you're
reporting. Please mention the commit you're testing with.

Thanks for the reply. I investigated further and it turns out that the issue resided in filepath case-sensitivity differences between Debian and OSX. Nothing to do with PHP7. You can close the report.
