Bug description:possibly a bug in file_exists() found

Description:
------------
When using built-in function "file_exists" in 5.3.5 I encountered a trouble
of locating one file, which had apostrophe in its' name.



$filename = "America's Army.png";

if ( file_exists($filename) ) echo "found it";

else echo "bug";



After backslashing the single quote ("America\'s Army.png"), I managed to
get things working.

I considered this as bug since it has nothing o do with DB/HTML
backslashing, and also took me a few hours to find out what the problem
was.





Test script:
---------------
// To test, copy a single file called "America's Army.png" to the initial
dir



$filename = "America's Army.png";

if ( file_exists($filename) ) echo "found it";

else echo "bug";

Expected result:
----------------
found it

Actual result:
--------------
bug
