PHP Bug Type:     Scripting Engine problem
Bug description:  __FILE__ gives relative path if not in web root

Description:
------------
This bug: http://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=13936 appears never to have been
completely resolved.

Using the test code from the above bug...

If the code resides somewhere in the DocumentRoot then it works as
expected. But, if it resides in a users public_html directory or inside an
aliased directory, it doesn't give the correct path.

I get the same issue with the current CVS version of PHP5 and apache 2.

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
echo "original file is: " . __FILE__ . "<br>";
include("test2.php");
?>

contents of test2.php:
<?php
echo "included file is: " . __FILE__ . "<br>";

$boo = "another try:  " . __FILE__;
echo $boo;
?>

Expected result:
----------------
original file is: /home/madison/public_html/test.php
included file is: /home/madison/public_html/test2.php
another try: /home/madison/public_html/test2.php

Actual result:
--------------
original file is: /home/madison/public_html/test.php
included file is: ./test2.php
another try: ./test2.php
