Bug description:is_writable returns always false

Description:
------------
When php script is run via apache is_writable always returns false :



'is_writable()' always returns 'false' whatever :

- the permission write sets or not.

- safe_mode on or off

- the owner of the file being root:root or apache:apache



on the other side, 'is_readable()' returns the correct value (either 'true'
when the file is made readable or 'false' when the file is made
unreadable). 



But, when the same script is run by the php command line (under root) -
is_writable returns the correct value.

Test script:
---------------
<?php

if (is_writable("toto")) {

        echo "is_writable<br>";

} else {

        echo "is not writable!!!<br>";

}

?>

Expected result:
----------------
is_writable in case 'toto' is writable

is not writable in case 'toto' is not writable
