Operating system: RH Linux 9.0
PHP version:      5.0.0b2 (beta2)
PHP Bug Type:     Documentation problem
Bug description:  documentation example causes error

Description:
------------
I tried to execute the example for interfaces in PHP 5.0.0b (beta 2) and
got this result:

Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class exception in
/home/billy/public_html/php5/interface.php on line 6

When I changed the word "Exception" to "Exception1" the code ran without a
problem.

Probably the example needs to be changed, but I am not sure.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
interface Throwable {
   public function getMessage();
}

class Exception implements Throwable {
   public function getMessage() {
       // ...
   }
}
?>


Expected result:
----------------
expect a blank page

Actual result:
--------------
Fatal error: Cannot redeclare class exception in
/home/billy/public_html/php5/interface.php on line 6
