Summary: rename() does not keep extended file attributes

New Comment:
For files, PHP's rename tries to rename(2), but if that fails for
whatever reason, it actually copies the file, and removes the
original. The latter would indeed ignore extended file attributes.
I'm not sure though, whether this is the reason in your case.

Description:
------------
When running from Apache2 using apache-mod-php, rename() strips extended attributes. The same code
works from the command line, and the system 'mv' command works in both cases.
move_uploaded_file() has the same problem as rename().
Test script:
---------------
<?php
// Requires xattr:
// pecl install xattr
// then add 'extension=xattr.so' to php.ini
// ASSUME: current directory is not /tmp
$a = tempnam('/tmp','my');
$b = basename($a);
for ($i=0; $i<2; $i++) {
file_put_contents($a,'TestData');
xattr_set($a,'owner','me');
switch($i){
case 0: rename($a,$b); $fn='rename'; break;
case 1: mv $a $b; $fn='mv'; break;
}
$owner = xattr_get($b,'owner');
echo "$fn
".($owner=='me'?'SUCCEEDED':'FAILED')."\n";
}
Expected result:
----------------
rename SUCCEEDED
mv SUCCEEDED
Actual result:
--------------
rename FAILED
mv SUCCEEDED
