Description:
------------
The source code in my testcase is in UTF-8 encoding itself. The quoted string contains Cyrillic letters. If I save the source code in KOI8-R (single-byte) Cyrillic encoding, and change the second argument to setlocale() to "ru_RU.KOI8-R", the observed result is what I expect. This shows that the bug only occurs on multi-byte characters, because in KOI8-R all characters are single-byte.

Relevant PHP configuration options:
--enable-mbstring=all
(--enable-zend-multibyte was not specified)

Relevant environment variables:
LANG=en_US.UTF-8
(LC_* are not set)

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

setlocale(LC_CTYPE, "en_US.UTF-8");
echo basename("english/???????");

?>

Expected result:
----------------
???????

Actual result:
--------------
english

I've explored the source code of php_basename() function, and here is what I found:

In case of a multi-byte character (inc_len > 1) that immediately follows a slash, state is not changed to 1 because that code is skipped. 

The following code:

					if (state == 0) {
						comp = c;
						state = 1;
					}

...needs to be inserted to the point marked below:

	while (cnt > 0) {
		inc_len = (*c == '\0' ? 1: php_mblen(c, cnt));

		switch (inc_len) {
			case -2:
			case -1:
				inc_len = 1;
				php_mblen(NULL, 0);
				break;
			case 0:
				goto quit_loop;
			case 1:
#if defined(PHP_WIN32) || defined(NETWARE)
				if (*c == '/' || *c == '\\') {
#else
				if (*c == '/') {
#endif
					if (state == 1) {
						state = 0;
						cend = c;
					}
				} else {
					if (state == 0) {
						comp = c;
						state = 1;
					}
				}
			default:
-- HERE IT GOES -->
				break;
		}
		c += inc_len;
		cnt -= inc_len;
	}

Can I expect that this bug will be fixed in CVS?

See bug #33260.

A message in that bug says "Sorry, but this is not supported yet. You'll have to wait for PHP that supports unicode."

What do you mean? Doesn't PHP 5.0.4, with all its multi-byte capabilities, support Unicode?

I've searched the bug database and found that there were similar bugs (30105, 30014, 28981) that are currently in "No feedback", not "Bogus" state. Why is this bug Bogus?

And last, what's wrong with my proposed modification? Doesn't it fix the bug?

Yes, full multibyte support is planned for 5.2.

>And last, what's wrong with my proposed modification? 

We don't need a workaround for a particular problem while patches fixing all multibyte-related problems are ready and being tested.
Also, please do use `diff -u` next time when you post patches. Thanks.
