Same bug found here in 5.04 on Fedora Core 4 with modphp
Symptom: modphp cannot write to files even if they are chmod 777, if
there is an acl for apache on the file.

I don't know if this is useful to anyone, but this seems to be a
regression of bug #14923, which was fixed back in 2002.

I have just experienced the bug on Fedora 4.  I tried JR's patch, and
that solves the problem for me.

Thanks,
Pete

I've written a patch to address this issue.

It uses POSIX's access function to determine file 
permissions.

I tested this patch on Mac OS 10.4.1, Windows XP SP2 and 
FreeBSD 5.2.1.

I am not sure if this patch also works for Win 9x (maybe 
R_OK, W_OK etc. are not defined there) and other non POSIX 
conformant OSes. Probably some more #ifndefs are required.

This also effects OS X Tiger ACLs.
Why was this changed from access() on PHP 4.3.X?

This is not fixed yet as of Mar. 31 in the 5.0.4 release.
