Description:
------------
is_dir() doesn't fail if path ends with additional space, opendir does.

Reproduce code:
---------------
create dir, for example "bla"
var_dump(is_dir("bla "));
var_dump(opendir("bla "));

Expected result:
----------------
Both should be either true or false.

Actual result:
--------------
is_dir() returns true, opendir() returns false.

Tested, problem remains.
I also tested on my freebsd box with php 5.1.2, works correctly (both values false).

Sara, please take a look at it.
Looks like a windows weirdness, but I'm unable to test it.

This is an oddity of win32 api, and not a bug in PHP.

Try this on command line and you will see this strange behaviour is a "feature" of the operating system.

md test
cd "test "

Windows happily complies with it.
