basename() uses php_mblen(), whose result depends on the locale:

Example (terminal using iso-8859-15):

glopes@nebm:~/php/php-t/bin$ LANG=pt_PT.utf8 php -r 'echo basename("./parent/\xe9\xe9\xe9"), "\n";'
parent
glopes@nebm:~/php/php-t/bin$ LANG=pt_PT.iso885915@euro php -r 'echo basename("./parent/\xe9\xe9\xe9"), "\n";'
ééé

This bug has been fixed in the documentation's XML sources. Since the
online and downloadable versions of the documentation need some time
to get updated, we would like to ask you to be a bit patient.

Thank you for the report, and for helping us make our documentation better.
