"Full Path Disclosure" isn't a risk but many systems of PHP or important sites
are vulnerable to this issues. Of course it is possible to turn off
display_errors but it isn't changing the fact, that issues should not be. It
is typical "Full Path Disclosure".
Yesterday I received the confirmation from phpBB about the acceptance of these
bug.
PHP is a specific language and are many different possibilities to show full
path. I will public note about this bugs.
