guess it has something to do with default directory rights for newly created directories??
the directory 'x' gives your script permission to create directory under it. so you are able to create directory 'y' inside 'x'. but the newly created directory 'y' does not gives your script permission to create subdirectory.

It makes much sence what you said, but how can PHP (with uid=48) make a directory with uid=1042. both folder are (to be) made the same script, but only one is (with uid=1042). This is what makes it very peculiar. I think I have skip the idea of creating 2 nested folders.
