This only works if safe_mode is disabled in php.ini
I could verify this using safe_mode = off, but enabling it gives me
an error that cgi-bin/test.pl; does not exist. So this is a bug, but
running confixx with safe_mode off is not recommended and should
not be done, as there are other ways to read the file besides the confixx
scripts.
