Comment (by dd32):

 {{{
 register_theme_directory('DocRoot/wp-content/themes');
 }}}
 does work, but you need to take into consideration two things: 1. If you
 use a relative path, it's relative to WP_CONTENT_DIR 2. You can pass an
 absolute path in

 So, this configuration worksforme, and twentythirteen is loaded correctly
 {{{
 WordPress: /media/sf_www/wordpress-commit/
 WP_CONTENT_DIR in wp-config.php: /media/sf_www/content/
 /media/sf_www/content/mu-plugin/themes.php:  register_theme_directory(
 '/media/sf_www/wordpress-commit/wp-content/themes/' );
 }}}

 Triple check the path's you're using in the example you've given, if any
 are relative, or don't exist, you'll run into the breakage you're seeing.
