Warning: Unknown(): open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/www/htdocs/phpSysInfo-2.1/index.php) is not within the allowed path(s): (/) in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(/www/htdocs/phpSysInfo-2.1/index.php): failed to create stream: Operation not permitted in Unknown on line 0

Warning: Unknown(): Failed opening '/www/htdocs/phpSysInfo-2.1/index.php' for inclusion (include_path='.:/usr/lib/php') in Unknown on line 0

As you can see, /www is in my opinion, inside /, which is my open_basedir for this particular file. 

The Apache config for this directory:

<Directory "/www/htdocs/phpSysInfo-2.1">
 php_admin_value open_basedir "/"
</Directory>

You can get the phpSysInfo-2.1 script yourselves, too long to paste here, and it's not mine anyways.

I wouldn't be surprised if an open_basedir set to / wasn't handled correctly.  It is one of these non-sensical settings that I suppose we should account for, but it really is meaningless.  All you are doing is burning more system calls with absolutely no benefit since everything is under /
