The first line of Test script should be:

var_dump(function_exists('readlink'));

It outputs bool(false) mentioned in the result.

Description:
------------
These two functions are available on Windows >= Vista since PHP 5.3.0. The problem is that
reflection have some pointers on them even in Windows < Vista (e.g. XP) where they are not
available.


Test script:
---------------
<?php
$r = new ReflectionExtension("standard");
$r->getFunctions();
?>


Expected result:
----------------
bool(false)


Actual result:
--------------
bool(false)

Warning: ReflectionExtension::getFunctions(): Internal error: Cannot find extension function
readlink in global function table

Warning: ReflectionExtension::getFunctions(): Internal error: Cannot find extension function symlink
in global function table
