Comment (by MattyRob):

 @nacin,

 Having just spent the last few minutes reading what SPL actually is I
 submit to your superior knowledge and understand your concerns. The
 AutoLoader calls and SPL function as does the PHPMailer class file.

 I think we should avoid branching the PHPMailer code if possible. Maybe we
 should consider delaying incorporating this ticket until PHP 5.3 is a
 requirement for WordPress especially when the current mail system is
 working well. (Presuming PHP 5.3 resolves the concerns with SPL)
