Also not a bug, you can unlink files in directories you own.  In this
case "directories you own" means a directory owned by the user id that
owns the current script.

This has nothing to do with file permissions, update summary

I forgot to add, the webserver runs as user/group "www".

unlink() function can be used to delete files that user does not have
permissions to delete.

Ex.

touch test;
ls -l test;
-rw-r--r--   1 forum    forum           0 May 12 10:33 test

ls -l a.php
-rw-rw-rw-   1 www      www            35 May 12 10:33 a.php
a.php:
<?php unlink('test'); ?>

after a.php is run via the web the file test is GONE!
