 load_plugin_textdomain is realative to WP_PLUGIN_DIR, so it fails to load
 localization files if plugin keeps them in its directory.

 The function should check if is called from mu-plugins and use
 WP_MUPLUGIN_DIR in that case.

 I can fix this in my own plugin by adding '../mu-lugins/' like this:

 {{{

   load_plugin_textdomain( 'tiny_tribuna', false, '../mu-plugins/'.dirname(
 plugin_basename( __FILE__ ) ) . '/languages/');
 }}}


 but this is not a good option for other plugins.
