Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to
report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Autoload looks for classes where needed. It does not load classes for
cases where a non loaded class already decides on the result (e.g.
instanceof)

Description:
------------
class MyClass extends MyParent implements MyInterface {
   public static function any_static_method() { }
}

MyClass::any_static_method()

the above should trigger __autoload() for MyClass
which would trigger __autoload() for MyParent
which would trigger __autoload() for MyInterface

Elegant and truly automatic :)
