Comment (by RuddO):

 foolswisdom: I based the ./ on the fact that some WP files already used
 it.  it seems to work fine, whereas under some (admittedly not common, but
 possible) conditions, the famed dirname(__FILE__) fails.

 this patch does not introduce any usage of getcwd().  Only my FireStats
 patch (mailed to the author) did.  As you say, getcwd() is not reliable,
 but it was the only way I could get FireStats to work, and the getcwd()
 mod went only into FireStats.
