Comment(by hakre):

 Thanks for the clarifications so far. That -p switch makes sense.

 > -p, --parents

 for reference: http://unixhelp.ed.ac.uk/CGI/man-cgi?mkdir

 I suggest to return true when the directory exists afterwards and false if
 not.

 So this needs clarification in the PHPdocs.

 Additionally the directory creation / user rights can be checked I smell
 something but need to find an older ticket first.
