Description:
------------
I create two files in my webroot directory www (served by apache
2.4.37):

- a.php
- b.php

In both I add this script:

```php
var_dump(__DIR__); exit;
```



The output from **a.php** is different than the one from **b.php** !!!

The output from a is this:

```html
string(88) "/Users/xxxxxxxxxxxxx/Documents/it/web/Komin>/service
création/projets/jin_site_demo/www" 
```

While the output from b is this:


```html
string(89) "/Users/pierrelafitte/Documents/it/web/Komin>/service
création/projets/jin_site_demo/www" 
```


I'm not sure where the problem comes from (php?, apache?, my mac?),
but there is obviously a problem as they should output the exact same
string.


The problem comes from the accent (é) which is not encoded in the same
manner,
I tried using the php binary (php -f a.php), and both scripts output
identical output, which means that the problem only occur when using php
with apache.


I'm just a php user (not php developer) so I don't have any patch, but
hopefully, if it's a php problem, this post helps to fix it.










Test script:
---------------
var_dump(__DIR__); exit;
