rmdir() function can be used to delete directories that a user should be able to delete under safe_mode.

Ex.

mkdir test
chmod 777 test
(gid: user pid: user)

test.php (gid: www pid: www)
<?php rmdir('test'); ?> 

works!

not a bug since only works if the directory which is being removed is located inside a directory with the same uid as the removing script.
