 New Comment:

The reason why this fails is because you have escape sequences wrapped in double quotes. If you try
the same thing with single quotes, then you will notice this function is working properly. Escape
sequences are parsed in the context of double quotes.

Description:
------------
When trying to use php copy() function on a file with a newline character in the filename, it fails
to open stream.

Test script:
---------------
php -r 'copy("filename_with\r\nNewline_character", "/tmp/copytest");'

Actual result:
--------------
php -r 'copy("filename_with\r\nNewline_character", "/tmp/copytest");'
PHP Warning:  copy(filename_with
Newline_character): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in Command line code on line 1
