instanceof is a language construct expecting a class identifier.
It doesn't complain about on-existing classes as it would need to
trigger the __autoloader which might be way too much.

is_a() is a function expecting a string. And this warning is unrelated
to the fact that the class "bar" doesn't exist, but due to the way PHP
