 I had a similar problem with some users of my plugins, the reason is based
 also on the realpath problem and a TinyMCE failure :

 a.) If you add a external plugin to TinyMCE the {{{($_GET['plugins'])}}}
 contains a empty field at the end : (inlinepopups, autosave, spellchecker,
 paste, wordpress,). Note the "''','''" at the end.

 FYI : A external plugin is added with a hyphen
 {{{
 array_push($plugins, '-mypluginname');
 }}}

 b) The OpenBSD contain a bug as explained in http://php.net/realpath :
 '''On BSD systems realpath doesn't fail if only the last path component
 doesn't exist, while other systems will return FALSE.'''

 So it happend that
 {{{
 TinyMCE_echo(file_get_contents($pluginFile));
 }}}
 is executed and look for a empty $pluginFile and return so a error, which
 halted TinyMCE
