Comment (by nbachiyski):

 The load_plugin_textdomain patch breaks backward compatibility. The
 {{{$path}}} arg used to represent a path, relative to {{{ABSPATH}}}, and
 now it is relative to {{{WP_PLUGIN_DIR}}}.

 There are a lot of plugins using it, so I think we should at least support
 it for one more version. We can add another argument, which represents
 path, relative to {{{WP_PLUGIN_DIR}}} and urge developers to use it. In
 2.7 we will switch top the new way only.

 A patch with updated function and docs is attached.
