Agreed, I still think this is used widely, it would be fine to have it
throw an E_DEPRECATED in 7.2 and removed in 8.0. Upgrading to not use
__autoload would be trivial.

Whilst (binary) may be harmless, it's also pointless, since it's just an
alias for (string) – I don't think it has wide-enough usage to worry
about deprecating it sooner rather than later.
