Description:
------------
I have PHP 5.3.1 installed ad apache module with apache version Apache/2.2.14.

I configured a virtual host with the directive:
php_admin_value open_basedir "/usr/share/pear:/home:/var/www/hosts:/tmp"

The script is into the path: /home/user/web/test.php
and there is a symbolik link from "/var/www/hosts/domain.tld" to "/home/user/web"

When I try to execute a file_exists on a path like this:

/var/www/hosts/domain.tld/test.php/testfile.file

Where "test.php" is a FILE and not a DIRECTORY

On all the other cases, no errors.
The special condition is the symbolink link and the filename in the path (like it's a directory).


Reproduce code:
---------------
var_dump(file_exists("/var/www/hosts/domain.tld/test.php/testfile.file"));
// Where "test.php" is a FILE and not a DIRECTORY, and domain.tld is a symbolink link to another directory.

Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)

Actual result:
--------------
Warning:  file_exists() [function.file-exists]: open_basedir restriction in effect. File(/var/www/hosts/domain.tld/test.php/testfile.file) is not within the allowed path(s): (/usr/share/pear:/home:/var/www/hosts:/tmp) in /home/user/web/test.php on line 1
