 I think that it is really a regression, but since it is probably happened
 long ago I might as well call it an enhancement now.

 I want to be able to set ABSPATH to
 {{{
 $_SERVER['document_root']
 }}}
 which will help me with some complex symlink games I am trying to play,
 but there is no way to do that as ABSPATH is unconditionally defined in
 wp-load.php.

 BTW wp-config-sample.php still includes code that defines ABSPATH.
