Description
I think there is a conflict with php's native **ErrorException** class becasue this compiles fine but fails on runtime :
```haxe
class ErrorException extends haxe.Exception{
public function new(msg:String){
super(msg);
}
}
class Main{
static function main(){
var e = new ErrorException("error");
trace(e.details());
}
}
```
Gives that at runtime :
```
PHP Fatal error: Uncaught Error: Call to undefined method ErrorException::details() in /test/bin/lib/Main.php:18
Stack trace:
#0 /test/bin/index.php(13): Main::main()
#1 {main}
thrown in /test/bin/lib/Main.php on line 18
```
I think there is nothing to do here but to be aware to not use class name's that already exist on specific plateforms... :/
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the PHP target output shown in /test/bin/lib/Main.php and reproduce the minimal ErrorException example. Investigate how the generated class name conflicts with PHP's native ErrorException; done would require either resolving the runtime behavior or documenting the platform limitation, neither of which is specified in the issue.
