For me it works since php-dev from july 4 2001 and also in 4.1.0. We had to install the July 4 version on our production website to be able to access UNC-style paths, now we could switch to 4.1.0.
We've made better experiences using "//server" instead of \\\\ because there has been a bug in the slash/backslash translation: To get \\ you had to use \\\\\\\\ - i don't know if this still exists, but this could be the reason why Helmuts script doesn't work.
