Description:
------------

this is only broken with PHP 8.0-dev for some time now and it's technically not possible that a class defined in the include above the extending definition is not found

require_once __DIR__ . '/PelEntry.php';
class PelEntryUndefined extends PelEntry
{
}

Test script:

tarball with the (i know outdated) pel-library and the simplest reproducer which works in 7.0-7.4 but no longer with HEAD

I think something is going wrong with a recursive require_once.

No, that's not it. I think the issue is that this code is relying on early binding, and early-binding on the PelEntry class is now prevented due to implicit addition of Stringable interface.

Here's a reduced test case:

<?php
  
echo new Test, "\n";

class Test {
    public function __toString() {
        echo "Early bound!";
    }
}

sounds like a terrible BC break and at least the error message is unhelpful nonsense given that even one of the zend engine experts pointed at include at the first try :-)
