There is a clear documentation about type hints, usage of an undocumented way is out of scope of BC. Using \int means there were a "class int{}" which is prohibited. Of course it is a bug after all, which will be addressed. It may not be documented, but that doesn't put it outside the scope of BC. People will unintentionally rely on bugs.
