Comment:

 `is_dir( dirname( $target ) )` returns false because the function was
 unable to create the $target directory even though the parent directory
 already exists. This is the correct behaviour.

 True is returned when the $target already exists and is a directory:

 {{{
 if ( file_exists( $target ) )
     return @is_dir( $target );
 }}}

 Closing as invalid. Please re-open if I misunderstood.
