Comment (by hlashbrooke):

 I've modified the solution to include two new functions instead - both
 included in {{{taxonomy.php}}}:
 * {{{get_term_parents()}}} - returns an array of parent term IDs
 * {{{get_term_parents_html()}}} - return an HTML string of term parents in
 hierarchical order

 {{{get_category_parents()}}} is now a wrapper for
 {{{get_term_parents_html()}}}, which in turn calls
 {{{get_term_parents()}}} to fetch the array from which to generate the
 HTML. This means that everything is still backwards compatible.

 I named {{{get_term_parents()}}} as such in order to mimic the naming
 convention already in place with {{{get_term_children()}}}.
