Comment (by DD32):

 -1 to that.

 Look at what currently lives within wp-config.php, Defines, A Table
 prefix(Which i'm supprised isnt defined too, but there'd be reasons for
 that i'm sure), and then requiring the next file.

 What is the point in having wp-config.php if it was split off to wp-
 defines.php?

 I'd say +1 to wp-blog-header.php including wp-settings.php rather than wp-
 config.php doing so, '''OR''' [[BR]]
 something like this in wp-config.php

 {{{
 if( !defined('WP_LOAD') || WP_LOAD != false )
      require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
 }}}
