Well, if it is PHP 5, then you can use introspection to find out where that
class is declared:

$className = get_class ($CFG);
$cls = new ReflectionClass ($className);

Echo "Class " . $className . " is defined in " .
$cls->getFileName() . " between lines " . $cls->getStartLine() . " and " .
$cls->getEndLine();
