Comment (by barry.hughes):

 Hey @afragen, thanks for checking on it!

 > As you suggest a more robust autoloader would solve this issue.
 Essentially an autoloader must be identical between the releases.

 Yep, though, possibly worth calling out that essentially this same problem
 (mixing of code from two different versions) can be replicated with the
 standard Composer autoloader—or even with no autoloader whatsoever.
