Blank page for disabled products - Compilation enabled - Magento 1.9.2.2

Question

Trying to solve a long standing issue on Magento 1.9.2.2 with Compilation Enabled.
To replicate
Run and Enable Compilation.
Make any product disabled.
Viewing disabled product URL on frontend produces a blank page - should return a 404.

This produces no PHP errors, system logs or error reports. Any ideas?

Fix for this issue, either disable Magento compiler or pollute your local code pool with autoloader modified to use include_once, instead of include used by built in autoloader.
