Description:
------------
Set open_basedir to /myscript
Try to do 'chdir("..")' from a file in /myscript/dir/ results in an open_basedir exception.
Using chdir("../") instead works.
PHPMyAdmin uses chdir("..") in the css/ directory, is not working with safemode turned on.



Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
// create directory bugme before executing the script
error_reporting(E_ALL);
chdir("bugme");
echo getcwd();
chdir("..");
echo getcwd();
chdir("../");
?>

Expected result:
----------------
Directory Change to upper directory on first call

Actual result:
--------------
Warning: chdir() [function.chdir]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(..) is not within the allowed path(s): (/webtree/htdocs/sql/) in /webtree/htdocs/sql/test.php

is not working with OPEN_BASEDIR turned on - nothing to do with safe_mode....
