Description:
------------
The following test was ported from 5.3 and behaves differently:
ext/standard/tests/file/pathinfo_variation2.phpt




Reproduce code:
---------------
On Windows the test produces:

*** Testing pathinfo() : usage variation ***

--float 10.5--
unicode(6) "inet.h"

--float -10.5--
unicode(6) "inet.h"

--float 12.3456789000e10--
unicode(17) "/usr/include/arpa"

--float -12.3456789000e10--
string(0) ""

While on Linux it produces:

*** Testing pathinfo() : usage variation ***

--float 10.5--
unicode(6) "inet.h"

--float -10.5--
unicode(6) "inet.h"

--float 12.3456789000e10--
unicode(%d) %s

--float -12.3456789000e10--
unicode(%d) %s

--float .5--
string(0) ""

Notice the return type for the float 0.5 case.

Sorry, the example output was incorrect and should have shown a 
unicode string for Linux (copy and paste error creating the bug!).

So when the test is run on Windows the following diff is produced:
013+ string(0) ""
013- unicode(%d) %s
