Description:
------------
With this script:
<?php
var_dump(realpath("//../tata/tutu"));
?>

On PHP 5.2.3 i got:
bool(false)

On PHP 5.2.4 i got:
string(10) "/tata/tutu"

Documentation say "realpath() returns FALSE on failure, e.g. if the file does not exist."

Works fine for me in latest CVS, do you have other settings like 
open_basedir/safe_mode or thread-safety enabled?

No special settings.

My admin say we use suhosin on this server... I think this the source of my problem.

Sorry for disturbing you.
