Which user note is that? I can't find one saying that the permissions
work on Win32. And in virtual_mkdir() in tsrm_virtual_cwd.c I see:

#ifdef TSRM_WIN32
        retval = mkdir(new_state.cwd);
#else
        retval = mkdir(new_state.cwd, mode);
#endif

So perhaps the manual should state that the second parameter of PHP's
mkdir is ignored on Win32?

To open another can of worms: the chmod manual page is also not very
specific about the modes - and as I understand, you can have at least
read-only files on Windows.
