Description:
------------
---
From manual page: http://www.php.net/class.phardata
---

This fails to iterate certain Tar files, see example below. If this is a by-design limitation it should be noted.

Test script:
---------------
#!/bin/bash
# Create a tar file.
mkdir -p orig-dir/subdir; touch orig-dir/{a,b,subdir/c}; cd orig-dir
tar czf ../test.tgz ./; cd ../

# PHP
<?php
$a = new PharData('test.tgz', RecursiveDirectoryIterator::SKIP_DOTS);
print count($a) . " files\n";
foreach (new RecursiveIteratorIterator($a) as $path => $fileinfo) {
  print "  " . $path . "\n"; // never runs.
}


Expected result:
----------------
3 files
 phar:///some/path/./a
 phar:///some/path/./b
 phar:///some/path/./subdir/c

Actual result:
--------------
5 files

Even when RecursiveDirectoryIterator::SKIP_DOTS is not passed to
the constructor, I see the same behavior, and to me that looks
like a bug, not a limitation.

yeah, I thought it was a bug, but because I only use packaged versions of PHP (Debian, Ubuntu) and neither of those is considered up-to-date enough to have an option in the bug reporter, I figured I'd say it was wrong documentation...

FWIW: I can confirm this bug is in PHP 5.6.20 and PHP 7.0.4.

This is actually a duplicate of bug #71966.
