Description:
------------
The function move_uploaded_file does not work if the destination
path is a relative path. The function returns TRUE, but the file is
not moved at all.

If I replace the following line:

  $dest_file = "./tmp/test.txt";

by:

  $dest_file = getcwd() . "/tmp/test.txt";

then everything works as expected. In the reproduce code, I provide
the HTML form used to upload a file, and the PHP code to process the
uploaded file. PHPINFO of the server running this script is available here:

  http://imu120.infomaniak.ch/phpinfo.php

Reproduce code:
---------------
<html>
<form enctype="multipart/form-data" METHOD="POST" action="upload.php">
    <input type="file" name="import_file"/>
    <input type="submit" name="submit"/>
</form>
</html>

<?php
    if (is_uploaded_file($_FILES["import_file"]["tmp_name"])) {
        $dest_file = "./tmp/test.txt";
        if (move_uploaded_file($_FILES["import_file"]["tmp_name"], $dest_file)) {
            // check the uploaded file has really been moved or not
            if (! file_exists($dest_file))
                echo "ERROR: uploaded file not moved as $dest_file";
            else
                echo "OK: uploaded file moved as $dest_file";
        }
    }
?>


Expected result:
----------------
OK: uploaded file moved as ./tmp/test.txt

Actual result:
--------------
ERROR: uploaded file not moved as ./tmp/test.txt
