You are right. I verified Apache changes the cwd to / unless it's been
launched in single process mode.
And I found results could be different by cases, using DSO or using CGI
executable. When you run your script with CGI executable and php.ini is
also present in that directory, the PHP binary tries to read that one as
mod_cgi tries to chdir to where the script is put.
I'm not sure, but this appears to imply some security issues?
