I'm not parsing it. I'm reading it as a human.
The cause of such error is a typo.

Don't parse error messages for information.
If you want to know if a class exists then use class_exists(). If you don't like that then use
a try/catch block. Of course there's also the question of why your code is trying to reflect an
invalid class.
$class = '\hey\there\is\Space ';
try {
new ReflectionClass($class);
} catch (ReflectionException $re) {
echo "'{$class}' does not exist";
}

Description:
------------
Currently if there's a space in class name such as new
\ReflectionClass('\hey\there\is\Space '), it's very hard to get it from error
message:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ReflectionException' with message 'Class \hey\t
here\is\Space does not exist' in ...
Would be great to have it like the following:
Fatal error: Uncaught exception 'ReflectionException' with message 'Class
"\hey\t
here\is\Space " does not exist' in ...
Test script:
---------------
<?php
new \ReflectionClass('\hey\there\is\Space ');
Expected result:
----------------
Exception with class name in quotes
Actual result:
--------------
Exception with class name w/o quotes
