I believe that the umask and other OS settings may also affect who
ends up owning a file created by 'root'...
http://php.net/umask

You're running this as CLI, right?...

Cuz if you are running your web server as root, shut it down NOW. :-)

(Anybody reading this who is running their server as root and actually
knows what they are doing: You ain't the one asking the above
question, now, are you?...)
