Well, that's the problem because PHP3 handled this well.
In PHP3, there was a particular case for DISCARD_PATH and it seems like
none of the main developers are using it and "forgot" about this. ;)

>From http://cvs.php.net/viewcvs.cgi/php3/request_info.c :

#if DISCARD_PATH
        if (GLOBAL(request_info).script_filename) {
                GLOBAL(request_info).filename =
estrdup(GLOBAL(request_info).script_filename);
        } else {
                GLOBAL(request_info).filename = NULL;
        }
#else

PHP4 now is ignoring this part and always seems to set path_translated
to NULL. Even before, as stated Andi in the code, it always seemed to be
set to NULL anyway.

I tried moving the DISCARD_PATH-specific code after the last
path_translated set to NULL but it didn't improve. I don't know enough
about PHP I guess.
