For better or worse, basename is affected by the locale. The encoding used in
the filenames must match the set locale.
Bogus.

I am reopening this as PHP 6 is not developed any more and the bug is still
valid.

Won't fix in PHP 5. This will be implemented for PHP 6.

Description:
------------
Simply put, basename() does ot work with Japanese filepaths. If the filename is
Japanese only the extension part of the filename is returned. So a filename
"/folder/t@C¼.txt" resolves to just ".txt". I discovered the problem when
performing a basename() on the $_FILES array's 'name' element for uploaded
Japanese files, however after testing the bug occurs no matter how you supply
the filename.
My PHP environment is running with UTF-8 internal encoding.
The code snippet below illustrates this perfectly.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
// show normal behavior with roman filename
$filename='/myfolder/roman_filename.txt';
echo "The full filename of the romanized file is $filename.\n"; //
/myfolder/roman_filename.txt
$basename=basename($filename);
echo "The basename of the romanized file is $basename.\n"; //
/roman_filename.txt
// show behavior with Japanese filename
$filename='/myfolder/ú{êÌt@C¼.txt';
echo "The full filename of the Japanese file is $filename.\n"; //
/myfolder/ú{êÌt@C¼.txt
$basename=basename($filename);
echo "The basename of the Japanese file is $basename."; // .txt
?>
Expected result:
----------------
The full filename of the romanized file is /myfolder/roman_filename.txt.
The basename of the romanized file is roman_filename.txt.
The full filename of the Japanese file is /myfolder/ú{êÌt@C¼.txt.
The basename of the Japanese file is ú{êÌt@C¼.txt.
Actual result:
--------------
The full filename of the romanized file is /myfolder/roman_filename.txt.
The basename of the romanized file is roman_filename.txt.
The full filename of the Japanese file is /myfolder/ú{êÌt@C¼.txt.
The basename of the Japanese file is .txt.
