Comment (by marfarma):
+1 for fixing this -- or at the very least providing the opportunity to
override it in wp-config or a mu plugin -- or somehow. As @jeremyclarke
notes, the only options to fix this is to buffer output or fork plugins.
I've ended up forking plugins, locally, and I'm not happy about it.
Beyond this, we really need to create a compelling reason for plugin
authors to fix their code.
Grep the plugin repository for deprecated constants like WP_CONTENT_URL,
and notify their authors that their plugins require remediation, for
plugins listed as compatible with versions >= 3.0, and last updated within
the past two years. Or send an alert to all authors of registered plugins
-- something.
At the very least, check new code for deprecated constants, and they be
removed when found -- like with themes.
