This also becomes funny with code like this:
<?php
function foo(String $bar) {}
foo($bar); // No class Sttttring,, $bar must be native string
include('some_file_which_defines_a_class_String_maybe_via_autoload_or_sth.php');
foo($bar); // Class String exists, $bar must be of that class
?>
Make things as deterministic as possible.
