Accroding to glibc's man basename(3):
[...]
The functions dirname() and basename() break a null-terminated pathname string
into directory and filename components. In the usual case, dirname() returns
the string up to, but not including, the final '/', and basename() returns the
component following the final '/'. Trailing '/' characters are not counted as
part of the pathname.
[...]
Our implementation behaves the same.

Similar "unexpected" is, that
dirname("") returns "."

Description:
------------
basename should return empty string on trailing slash strings
Test script:
---------------
echo basename("/test/path/");//returns path
