Description:
------------
The file_put_contents()-function writes to SERVER_ROOT; not to the same path the script is running in. I'll use this for debug-mode (to write SQL-query-logs and other variables to txtfiles).'
I'm using PHP 5.1.1 as loaded module in Apache 2.0.55 on Win32.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
class test
{
	function __destruct()
	{
		//	Writes to SERVER_ROOT (!!)
		file_put_contents("testing.txt","Blabla");
	}
}

$x = new test();
?>

Expected result:
----------------
testing.txt has to be written in the executed path.

Actual result:
--------------
testing.txt is written in SERVER_ROOT of Apache2.

I tested also with flag 'FILE_USE_INCLUDE_PATH' but that doesn't work; it writes also in SERVER_ROOT.
