Definitely.  We include functions-post.php in wp-settings.  Most of that
stuff is only needed by xmlrpc.php and wp-admin/.  So, we should load it
only from wp-admin/admin.php and xmlrpc.php.  Maybe we should have a
wp-includes/admin.php that xmlrpc.php, wp-comments-post.php, and plugins
could include to pull in admin functions.
