Yes, I read that exception can not be catched from autoload, but one 
thing was which confused me in this case:

<?php
define('error', oops_i_left_the_quotes);
class foo {
}
?>
In this case I got bar not found.

<?php
class foo {
	const error = oops_i_left_the_quotes;
}
?>
In this case I got the exception.

So the difference is that class level constants are creating after the 
autoload?
