Description:
------------
when / is passed as pathinfo to a script current working directory is set to the php-cgi.exe directory instead of script directory

http://localhost/foo/bar.php gives: 
cwd===>C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\foo<=== which is ok

http://localhost/foo/bar.php/x gives:
cwd===>C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs\foo<=== which is ok

http://localhost/foo/bar.php/ gives:
cwd===>C:\Program Files\PHP<=== which is obviously not ok, therefore all includes in scripts fail

apache 2 config:

ScriptAlias /php/ "C:/Program Files/PHP/"
Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php-cgi.exe"

php.ini:

 cgi.fix_pathinfo=1



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

print "cwd===>".getcwd()."<===";

?>

I tested PHP Version 5.2.7RC2-dev (2008-Oct-24 20:00:00)

with the thread safe version the problem is the same.

with the non thread safe version I get:
No input file specified. 

with both versions calling the script without pathinfo or with a pathinfo other than /  is still ok

What if you don't set this in your php.ini:
cgi.fix_pathinfo=1

(or set it to 0)

when cgi.fix_pathinfo=0

I get "No input file specified." for
http://localhost/foo/bar.php/ and
http://localhost/foo/bar.php/x

works for
http://localhost/foo/bar.php
