A Patch for this problem is available here:
http://kyberdigi.cz/projects/execdir/english.html

This Option would be very nice, even if it decreases performance (if
this decrease is optional)

Description:
------------
By bow we have safe_mode_exec_dir
working (and good) for shared hosting, only if SAFE_MODE enabled.

But often, SAFE_MODE need to be turned off. After this
safe_mode_exec_dir is nothing. So we need to disable some funtions
(system,passthru,...). But it can be done only for _ALL_ hosts. So if
one host use "system()" in "safe_mode 1" to one or two special programs
and happy - i can't turn SAFE_MODE 0 for other hosts. It's became realy
danger - sometimes users have unsecure scripts and by using
'blah.php?f=http://somethere...' intruder can get nobody shell. Nobody
shell mean - He can read mysql password in config.php or settings.php
files. He also can install blindshell.

So maybe good to add 'exec_dir' variable for working in 'safe_mode 0'
?


Reproduce code:
---------------
none needed
