Description:
------------
When we have an openbasedir like :
/www/something/mysite/

and subdirs like :
/www/something/mysite/yourstuff/another/

When my script is running in /www/something/mysite/ and I want to create a link in the "another" directory to a file in "mysite" (../../myfile.html)

Reproduce code:
---------------
execute in /www/something/mysite/
<?php

symlink("../../mytarget.html","yourstuff/another/mylink");

?>

my target is in :
/www/something/mysite/mytarget.html

and mylink is in :
www/something/mysite/yourstuff/another/mylink


Expected result:
----------------
Just to create links that source and destination ARE in the openbasedir !

Actual result:
--------------
It say I'm out of the openbasedir, but the link isn't.

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

The link itself is outside of the allowable dir, hence the error.

No, the link IS in the open_basedir. The link created create this link :
/www/something/mysite/yourstuff/another/mylink => ../../mytarget.html

And not :
/www/something/mysite/mylink => ../../mytarget.html


And the problem is it works well without open_basedir(and no link is pointing outside the open_basedir).
