Description:
------------
PHP version - PHP 5.4.9-4ubuntu2 (cli) (built: Mar 11 2013 16:05:09) 

Function basename works incorrect with spaces in cyrillic encoding. This function separates filename by a space. For example basename("www/abc defg") = "defg". It should be "abc defg". The letters should be in Cyrillic like 'абв где'.

1. Set locale ru_RU.UTF-8
2. Run this code echo basename('абв где');
3. basename return 'где'. basename must return 'абв где'.

Test script:
---------------
echo basename('абв где');

Expected result:
----------------
baseline function should't divide string by space.

Actual result:
--------------
basename('путь до каталога/абв  где') = 'где'

Are you sure you are using UTF-8 and not CP1251 there? You set your locale to 
UTF8, and I tested your code with the UTF8:

echo basename('абв где');

And it works just fine.

eg.

php > echo basename('путь до каталога/абв  где');
абв  где

If you are using CP1251 you can try calling:

mb_internal_encoding("CP1251");

before your basename() call. Does it change anything?
