So useless.
function get_drives()
{
$d='ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ';
$drives='';
for($i=0;$i<strlen($d);$i++)
if(is_dir($d[$i].':\\'))
$drives.=$d[$i];
echo $drives;
}

I check back here every day for progress. Never happens. I'm non-plussed as to
how this feature got overlooked for so long, or what mythical issues pajoye
thinks there are with my lovely code. :-(

I'd really like to see this, or something like it, added to the next version of
PHP.

5.3 is not for new features. And as I said in my comment, there are issues
with this patch. So don't be too much disappointed :)

I'm very disappointed this wasn't added to PHP 5.3.4. I've been checking daily
since submitting this but the new version of PHP was just released and my patch
has been forgotten.
This code works perfectly (as far as I can tell) and fills a glaring hole in
the PHP filesystem API. All it needs is for somebody to decide to add it to the
source tree. Name the function whatever. I did the best I could to learn the
ins and outs of the PHP internals to integrate it and provide it in an
acceptable form. This is where someone (?) on IRC told me to submit it.
