Hi Jessie,

I tested the patch and it works well for me.
I think if we want a predictable name resolution without speed loss  
this is the way to go.
 From an "aesthetic" point of view we could even add a PHP namespace  
(or even extension specific namespaces) and import all classes from  
the PHP namespace into the global namespace (to avoid BC break). This  
way one could use "use PHP::Exception" instead of "use ::Exception".
But I'm perfectly happy with the patch as is.

The patch didn't apply cleanly against current PHP_5_3. Therefore I  
attached an adapted version.


Regards,
Julian Reich
