PHP 5.3 will have better portable support for quite a few filesystem
functions. Please try using this CVS snapshot:

Windows (zip):
 
  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.3-win32-latest.zip

Windows (installer):

  http://snaps.php.net/win32/php5.3-win32-installer-latest.msi

Nuno, as Sara isn't doing anything anymore, I guess it's up to you now
to fix this..?

Sara, what's the status on this? (version was weird, never saw this
before checking what people have now invented as version..)

I'll try looking for unencumbered information to develop a fix that
avoids GPL licensing complications first.

If it's indeed the result of a bug in the microsoft OS implementation
there should be sufficient information out there to develop a fix that
doesn't involve reusing restrictively licensed code.

Sara, could you plz check the patch out? Thanks.

Patch: http://mega.ist.utl.pt/~ncpl/php_win_touch_dirs.txt

Note: it includes a function that was adapted from Perl 5
(win_filetime_from_time). The Perl code is distributed under GPL (and
that file is (c) 1995 Microsoft Corporation), so I'm not sure if the
code can go in. That function just converts a time_t into microsoft's
format.
