Comment:

 Is this a good use case of Grunt? Seems more like Codesniffer or PHP 5.2
 syntax checking. Though `__DIR__` doesn't trigger a syntax error in 5.2,
 `__DIR__` isn't the common issue. It's some other PHP 5.3-ism, usually,
 and ones that trigger a fatal or syntax error.

 The number of times a `__DIR__` has entered core is, best I can tell from
 a search of commit logs, 1.
