Description:
------------
ext/standard/tests/file/bug24482.phpt, run fast enough with other tests, on 4+ cpu core machines may get a different count of the files in the ext/standard/tests/file directory from glob() and opendir().

This is not a stat cache problem. Its just that other PHPT tests create files in ext/standard/tests/file directory and, though they clean them up, on very fast Windows servers, sometimes the deletion is committed to the file system (by Windows) during the time between the glob() and opendir() calls.

This isn't really a PHP problem, but rather an OS behavior/side-effect of performance optimizations in the OS/file-system.

The simple solution is to change the directory the test checks to ext/standard/tests. PHPT tests don't create test files there at all, so the count of files/directories there won't change during a test run.

Test script:
---------------
See ext/standard/tests/file/bug24482.phpt

Expected result:
----------------
Pass

Actual result:
--------------
Fail (2 different counts)
