Description:
------------
is_dir() seems to cache the last status for a given dir and don't check if it still exists.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php

mkdir('dir');
is_dir('dir');
rmdir('dir');
$err = is_dir('dir');

?>

Expected result:
----------------
$err = false;

Actual result:
--------------
$err = true;

Thank you for taking the time to write to us, but this is not
a bug. Please double-check the documentation available at
http://www.php.net/manual/ and the instructions on how to report
a bug at http://bugs.php.net/how-to-report.php

Expected behaviour, read about clearstatcache();

I think that after some file/dir functions the stat cache should be clean automatically.

like: rmdir(); unlink(); ... all functions that alter files or dirs ...
