the VFS is nothing by default, it's a security risk.  it can be
configured securely, but that's server specific so it can't be done by
default.  this page has a section explaining how to setup the vfs
files location securely, and the path you choose to store the files in
will need to be in the openbasedir path.

strange.  maybe the site root needs to be in the open base dir?  or
maybe it should not be in there?  I've never used it so I don't know
for sure.

makes sence, simple solution too.  Dave, can you do this for the new release?
