        if ((wrapper = php_stream_locate_url_wrapper(filename, &local, 0 TSRMLS_CC)) == &php_plain_files_wrapper) {
-               if (php_check_open_basedir(local TSRMLS_CC) || (PG(safe_mode) && !php_checkuid_ex(filename, NULL, CHECKUID_ALLOW_FILE_NOT_EXISTS, CHECKUID_NO_ERRORS))) {

                        RETURN_FALSE;
                }
        }

this change was introduced in php 5.1.5 by Ilia.

open_basedir says that all file operations are affected.
