Bug description:__autoload fails to throw exception when calling a static method on the class

Description:
------------
I've tried to do the following:

1. Wrote and autoload method, that throws an exception.
3. Made a static call on a non-existing class within a try block.

Tried this on windows 7 / Apache 2.2 / PHP 5.3.3.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

function __autoload($class_name) {
	throw new Exception($class_name);
}

try {
	Application::start();
        // new Application(); works fine
} catch (Exception $ex) {
	var_dump($ex);
}


Expected result:
----------------
The script should var_dump() an exception with the Message 'Application' as
it does when instantiating a class.

Actual result:
--------------
The script dies with Fatal error: Class 'Application' not found.
