you can use it as a workaround.

Never mind on the workaround. Was related to some fastcgi caching. If
you are running fastcgi the parent directory check is only done the
first time. If it has access the first time it won't check the parent
directory for further accesses.

Same problem with PHP 5.3.5 on Windows 2008 with IIS 7.
Workaround is to add "\." to the end of the path and then PHP doesn't
attempt to access the parent directories at all. For example, change
"d:\files\directory\test" to "d:\files\directory\test\."

That makes sense. I'm on XP. Thanks. If you need quicker feedback,
shoot me an email or assign the bug to me.

Nothing has changed in 5.2/3.x about that. The problem may come from the
tsrm's real path which tries to access all parent directories to cache
them.
I have to investigate why it fails on XP (and on on 2003 for your
right?) but not on more recent versions.

I just installed 5.3.2. The regression has gotten worse. Now the
"Subdir/.." workaround fails too:
Warning: opendir(C:/Dir/Subdir/..,C:/Dir/Subdir/..) [function.opendir]:
Access is denied. (code: 5)...
