Description:
------------
I have test2.php file, which is symlink to test.php
test.php is:
<?=__FILE__; ?>

No matter which file is executed, the result is the same
[dvereschaka@ns test1]$ php test.php ; php test2.php
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test.php
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test.php

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?=__FILE__; ?>



Expected result:
----------------
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test.php
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test2.php


Actual result:
--------------
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test.php
/home/dvereschaka/test/test1/test.php
