[wp-hackers] mb_send_mail removed?

[Scott Reilly]

Ryan, I must be overlooking something here, how does one go about
redefining a core function?  I realize PHP does not allow
redefinition, hence the wrapping of re-definable functions in
   if ( ! function_exists('func_name') )

However, in wp-settings.php, all the core code is included before the
plugins are sourced.  So assuming you wrapped wp_mail() in a
function_exists check, wouldn't the function always never exist even
if it were defined by a plugin, since the plugin would be sourced
after functions.php (where the core wp_mail() is defined)?

I admit I only made a cusory attempt at trying to redefine a function
not too long ago, but I was met with what I expected, an error
indicating I was attempting to redefine an existing function.
