Unable to create directory by mkdir PHP function when PHP runs under safe mode.
The following command fails:
if (!mkdir("$PHP_DOCUMENT_ROOT/$path", 0770))when $path has a trailing slash.

There is two possible solutions.
Both shown below and can also be found at
http://www.cf1.ru/~byg/patch/php/safe_mode.c.patch
http://www.cf1.ru/~byg/patch/php/mkdir_get_rid_trailing_slashes.patch
or
ftp://ftp.cf1.ru/pub/patches/php/

1) change php_checkuid in main/safe_mode.c 
2) change mkdir handler in ext/standard/file.c
