Description:
------------
Probably this is just a problem with the documentation as there is no usage example of realPath(). I tried several different approaches of using realPath() but everything I tried ended up in an infinite loop. But whatever the purpose of that method may be, it shouldn't result in an inifite loop
Reproduce code:
---------------
echo File_Util::realPath(".");
echo File_Util::realPath("..");
echo File_Util::realPath("./home");
echo File_Util::realPath("home");
Expected result:
----------------
? the purpose of the method is not documented yet.
Actual result:
--------------
nothing

This bug has been fixed in CVS.
In case this was a documentation problem, the fix will show up at the
end of next Sunday (CET) on pear.php.net.
In case this was a pear.php.net website problem, the change will show
up on the website in short time.
Thank you for the report, and for helping us make PEAR better.

Just a note:
File_Util::realPath() is for building full paths for non-existent paths.
