Comment:

 In that setup, I dont think its possible to deal with it on a PHP-level,
 The searching would have to be rather complex.

 You'd be better off defining the constants to override it.

 Constants are:
 {{{
 $constant_overrides = array( 'FTP_BASE' => ABSPATH, 'FTP_CONTENT_DIR' =>
 WP_CONTENT_DIR, 'FTP_PLUGIN_DIR' => WP_PLUGIN_DIR );
 }}}

 so:
 {{{
 define('FTP_BASE', '/mysuperpage.com/');
 define('FTP_CONTENT_DIR', '/mysuperpage.com/wp-content/');
 define('FTP_PLUGIN_DIR', '/mysuperpage.com/wp-content/plugins/');
 }}}

 I'm going to leave this open in the future release, Just for reference
 that the bug exists, and that WordPress should perhaps deal with it
 itself..
