I just upgraded my PHP version from v5.3.1 to v5.3.9. Suddenly class constructors started not working. Any ideas?

You are probably using constructors with Class name instead of __construct() keyword. See the behaviour change in v5.3.3 here:

Use __construct() and you should be fine.

Note that this behaviour only changed back for namespaced classes.
Yes, that's it! I was using namespaces and constructor names equal to class names. I tried to accept the answer but it says i need to wait a few more minutes. I'm new to this site. Sorry if i'm missing something.
@Henry Adams: Nice to hear that your problem is solved. You need to wait for a while before accepting an answer at the beginning stages. That's normal.
