There is no bug here. The documentation (php, posix or msdn) says that
a path is expected. A drive letter is not a path, even not a relative
path.

If it is desired to have php's chdir behaves like chDrive on windows
(netware too?), it could be possible to do it. As it will make chdir
behaviors inconsistent with the system API, it will keep the php code
portable (from an API point of view). 

If not, I can add expose chDrive.

I don't have time to investigate this problem further..

Same problem here.  Try to open_dir to a SUBST'ed directory failed. 
Using XP sp2, Apache 2.2.4 is install by my admin, running as service . 
I have no administrator access right. 

Before my admin installed Apache as service, I was using apache as
normal user, running in console mode.  It worked perfectly then.

I reproduce this with both Windows XP and 2003.

OK, I was able to reproduce the problem.
I used Apache 2.0 and is_dir() doesn't work with network mapped drives.
other drives work and in CLI mode it also works. (it can be because
Apache runs as another user, although I haven't looked further into the
problem)
