I’m not a fan of safe_mode and open_basedir (even before talking to Zeev Suraski when I learnt that it will be removed in PHP 6). Surprisingly, sometimes an easy to find set of safe_mode related bugs, viewed by thousands of eyes, survives for ages. I’ve just sent this trivial patch for the upcoming Joomla 1.5.
