New Comment:
This is not a bug, just a change of behaviour, which is IMO much more
logical and more clear than the old behaviour.
Use open_basedir to restrict access to directories.
include("/script.php") refers to the absolute path /script.php (the file
script.php under the root)

doc_root string - PHP's "root directory" on the server. If PHP is
configured with safe mode, no files outside this directory are served.

Why does php 4 handle this so differently than 3 did, especially when it
comes to referencing file locations like when including files?
I have had to resort to using either "../" or
$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] to access included files in PHP4 when
before I used to be able to use /name.php notation to absolutely refer
to the include files within the web site doc_root directory. We are
running PHP in SAFE MODE.
I think this may just be an oversight, but, if not, I would love an
explanation of the rationale.
