Having class named Entity in the global namespace, interferes with the new annotation reader.

Having a class named Entity in the global namespace, results in exceptions: "Class xxx is not a valid entity or mapped super class."
The problem is not present in 2.0

The problem:

line 421: $reflClass = new \ReflectionClass($name);

$name is "Entity", and the reflection finds the non-doctrine Entity-class in the global namespace, and so doesn't find the "@Annotation" it's looking for when it examines the class.

If I force it to reflect on \Doctrine\ORM\Mapping\Entity instead, the next problem is instantiation:

line 435: return new $name($values);

Forcing that to the right class, brings a "Failed opening required 'Doctrine/ORM/Mapping/Doctrine/ORM/Mapping/Id.php' " - I haven't investigated further (yet at least).
