Description:
------------
This is a duplicate of #31892, but I am not sure if anyone will see
that old bug?  I don't know the code well enough to know if that patch
submitted is perfectly fine to include in the main code.  Can someone
check to see if it looks alright?

I am unable to use php5 in cgi mode due to php_self not being correctly
reported.

I can provide an example or a login if it is unclear what is
happening.

I see Bug #31843, but I don't understand the response.  I should just
change all scripts to not use $php_self?  I guess I could make my own
php_self my appending $SCRIPT_FILENAME.$PATH_INFO?  Is there any reason
why this isn't fixed? ie. does anyone use PHP_SELF in its current form,
who would notice if it was changed back to its old behavior?

Reproduce code:
---------------
echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']

Expected result:
----------------
the actual script path.

Actual result:
--------------
NULL
