Comment (by tobias):

 Replying to [comment:16 wpmuguru]:
 > DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE is not a required constant. Old MU installs will not
 have it nor will installs that are running more than one network.

 Why not introduce a new variable that is used for generating site-urls all
 over the core. And of course there needs to be a fallback for when the
 variable is not set. This fallback may very well be the HTTP_HOST
 variable. But this way there is only one place that needs fixing and it is
 easier to find.

 I was could not really believe when I saw, that the wordpress-core has
 places where a site-url is generated all over the place. I am a little
 impressed that WP managed to manage so much redundancy (not DRY-ness). But
 I don't think it is good.
