No, because it's sometimes vital to have files in open_basedir to allow
acces to one specific file without the need to put it into a directory
for its own.

Description:
------------
My setup:
document root is: "/home/wejn/x/docs/html/".
While "/home/wejn/x/docs/html/" is symlink to:
"/home/wejn/x/docs1/html/".
I have safe_mode enabled and open_basedir set to
"/home/wejn/x/docs/html:/home/wejn/x/docs1/html".
With this setup I'm unable to perform:
copy("/home/wejn/x/docs/html/x", "/home/wejn/x/docs/html/y");
when "y" doesn't exist. If I touch "y" prior running the
script, everything runs just fine.
IMO, there is problem with symlink resolving code somewhere under
php_check_specific_open_basedir().
It seems to me that more precise location of the bug is somewhere in
virtual_file_ex() regarding the realpath() call.
Maybe it would be better to perform open_basedir check just on dirs
instead of files (in various filesystem functions)?
Btw, this problem exists also in 4.3.8, which makes me think that it's
there for a LONG time ... unnoticed.
