New description:

 When using `plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ )` or `plugins_url( __FILE__ )` in a
 plugin with PHP 5.2.17 the absolute filepath is included in the URL
 string. In both cases the functions include the absolute filepath before
 the plugin directory name and after http://host/wp-content/plugins.

 for example in PHP 5.2 [[BR]]
 http://mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/my-plugin [[BR]]
 would become [[BR]]
 http://mydomain.com/wp-content/plugins/home/fileowner/public_html/wp-
 content/plugins/my-plugin/

 in PHP 5.3 plugin_dir_url works as it should but plugins_url still
 displays the absolute URL within.

 All has been tested using PHP 5.2.17 and PHP 5.3.13 in MAMP Pro on OSX
 10.7
