Comment (by r-a-y):

 Before I commit 02b.patch, here's something I just thought of.

 The only bad thing about this technique is for plugins wanting to support
 older BP versions.

 This is something I'm currently doing in my custom extended BP_Component
 class.

 {{{
         /**
          * Custom version of the {@link BP_Component::start()} method.
          *
          * Since BuddyPress 1.9, start() has four parameters.  However,
 for backwards-
          * compatibility with older versions of BuddyPress, we need to
 pass three.
          */
         protected function init() {
                 $menu_order = 65;

                 $rf = new ReflectionMethod( 'BP_Component', 'start' );

                 // as of BP 1.9, start() method accepts 4 parameters
                 if ( $rf->getNumberOfParameters() == 4 ) {
                         parent::start(
                                 'blah',
                                 __( 'Blah', 'bp-blah' ),
                                 constant( 'BP_BLAH_DIR' ) . '/includes',
                                 array(
                                         'adminbar_myaccount_order' =>
 (int) $menu_order
                                 )
                         );

                 // older versions of BP
                 // this section will probably be removed in a future
 version
                 } else {
                         parent::start(
                                 'blah',
                                 __( 'Blah', 'bp-blah' ),
                                 constant( 'BP_BLAH_DIR' ) . '/includes',
                         );

                         // set properties manually
                         $this->adminbar_myaccount_order = (int)
 $menu_order
                 }

         }
 }}}

 init() is used in place of parent::start() in the constructor.
