Thanks Uwe.
I don't think that anyone can close the bug till someone fixes or
agrees to fix the defect in the engine :-)
When I fix the test case it will pass for you but will fail for
everyone else until the engine bug is fixed.

Hi Uwe
I now understand this as far as it's possible for me, the next step is
to get someone more expert to look at it - so I'm summarising and
assigning back to Johannes.
Summary
=======
There are two parts to this defect - first the problem with tests being
run as root. I have fixed those test cases.
The second part is with the failing readlink_realpath_variation.phpt
test. This test is failing on Uwe's sytem because he has used the
configure option --enable-maintainer-zts.
There are two problems with readlink_realpath_variation.phpt. First the
test case has been coded incorrectly, it should *pass* with
--enable-maintainer-zts and should *fail* without it. Secondly, there is
a bug in PHP which needs someone fairly expert to look at it.
I will change the test case so that it fails properly instead of
testing for, and passing, incorrect behaviour.
Here is a simple reproduce test case for the failure:
--TEST--
Dump failure result of trying to create non-existant link followed by
realpath() on non-existant link
--FILE--
<?php
$name_prefix = dirname(__FILE__);
$filename = "$name_prefix/fred.tmp";
mkdir("$name_prefix/mary/", 0777, true);
// create a temp file
$file_handle = fopen($filename, "w");
fclose($file_handle);
$no_such_link = "$name_prefix/../$name_prefix/no_file.tmp";
//******************************************//
var_dump( symlink($filename, $no_such_link) );
var_dump( realpath($no_such_link ));
//******************************************//
unlink("$name_prefix/fred.tmp");
rmdir("$name_prefix/mary/");
?>
--EXPECTF--
Warning: symlink(): No such file or directory in %s on line %d
bool(false)
bool(false)
The two important lines are marked by ***. Both of these work correctly
on their own - but not together.

Hi - don't worry about rebuilding, it's one of 4 options on the
configure command that is making the difference. I can reproduce your
failure.

Hi Uwe
I have run the test on an Ubuntu Feisty system and still can't
reproduce your failure.
Looking at the phpinfo() output there are two main differences between
your and my set up. The first one (you are using php-ini.dist and I was
not using any ini file) I have checked and ruled out. The second one is
your ./configure command.
I have just re-built php with ./configure --with-pcre-regex
--disable-all and I still get the same results. Please would you
re-build with this configure command and rerun the sample code then post
the results? I'll try and get as close as I can to your configure
command but may not be able to reproduce it exactly.
Thanks - Zoe

Oh - bother - that's really annoying I was hoping to see different
results - your output is not the same as my PHP52 download from today
but it is the same as I get with the standard php installation on
Ubuntu.
I'll get access to a feisty installation tomorrow, in the meantime
please would you attach the output from <?php phpinfo() ?> ? Just in
case I can get anything additional from that?
Thanks
