I opened up a feature request for this very topic a while back. The __autoload function should just register user-defined functions and store those func names in a stack so that (in turn) each function can require the appropriate file. If the first registered function fails to load the class then __autoload tries the next registered fucntion and so on until all of the registered functions have been tried. At this point if __autoload fails then we E_ERROR out explaining that __autoload could not load the class definition. As far as I can tell this is the cleanest solution that has been provided, but there is some disagreement over some of the details on this approach.

agreed, but as you point out - the devil is in the details. :-)
