The documentation says that if I enable safe_mode and set doc_root, no scripts outside of the doc_root directory are served. I have not been able to get that to work and a quick search in the sources confirmed my suspicion that this feature is not implemented yet.

The relevant entries in my php.ini file:

safe_mode               =       On
doc_root                =       /u/www/WWW/conject/htdocs/db    ; the root of the php pages, used only if nonempty

You should rely on open_basedir instead of doc_root for now.
safe_mode is going to be revisted/redesigned soon.
