I was really really embarassed when I was debugging my script. Correct me if I'm wrong but the stack is a data structure that uses LIFO mechanism to store its entities. That means that what you added last is gonna to be pulled out of the stack first (Last In - First out). And what php uses is just a list, that can be appended or prepended depending on what your arguments are. By default, the $prepend argument is false. I suppose it's more a queue rather than stack. Test script: --------------- <?php function register_other1() { echo "\nreg1"; spl_autoload_register(function ($className) { echo "\nCan not load class with other autoload 1: " . $className; }); } register_other1(); function register_other2() { echo "\nreg2"; spl_autoload_register(function ($className) { echo "\nCan not load class with other autoload 2: " . $className; }); } register_other2(); function register_other3() { echo "\nreg3"; spl_autoload_register(function ($className) { echo "\nCan not load class with other autoload 3: " . $className; }); } register_other3(); var_dump(spl_autoload_functions()); new \Sasa\Lol\Prol(); Expected result: ---------------- reg1 reg2 reg3 Can not load class with other autoload 3: Sasa\Lol\Prol Can not load class with other autoload 2: Sasa\Lol\Prol Can not load class with other autoload 1: Sasa\Lol\Prol Actual result: -------------- reg1 reg2 reg3 array (size=3) 0 => object(Closure)[1] 1 => object(Closure)[2] 2 => object(Closure)[3] Can not load class with other autoload 1: Sasa\Lol\Prol Can not load class with other autoload 2: Sasa\Lol\Prol Can not load class with other autoload 3: Sasa\Lol\Prol ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=67936&edit=1
