note 61591 added to function.header

I think that the location example ins't valid anymore, at
least in my environment (*nix+apache, php4.10);
It says:

header ("Location: http://".$HTTP_SERVER_VARS['H
TTP_HOST'].
"/".dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']).
"/".$relative_url);

but in my environment
"/".dirname($HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']) outputs
a double slash (//) in front fo the dirname causing php non
to follow the expected redirection.
This is because $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['PHP_SELF']) adds a
leading slash to the dirname.

I solved by omitting the '/' between the HTTP_HOST and the
PHP_SELF.
In addiction probably is better, if not the same, to use the
$_SERVER instead of the $HTTP_SERVER_VARS.

Hope my 2 cents could be useful for someone.
