 Simply add one more arguments in {{{ get_category_parents}}} function for
 getting custom taxonomy parents.
 It can be like this:
 {{{#!php
 function get_taxonomy_parents( $id, $taxonomy = 'category', $link = false,
 $separator = '/', $nicename = false, $visited = array() ) {
         $chain = '';
         $parent = get_term( $id, $taxonomy );
         if ( is_wp_error( $parent ) )
                 return $parent;

         if ( $nicename )
                 $name = $parent->slug;
         else
                 $name = $parent->name;

         if ( $parent->parent && ( $parent->parent != $parent->term_id ) &&
 !in_array( $parent->parent, $visited ) ) {
                 $visited[] = $parent->parent;
                 $chain .= get_taxonomy_parents( $parent->parent,
 $taxonomy, $link, $separator, $nicename, $visited );
         }

         if ( $link )
                 $chain .= '<a href="' . esc_url( get_category_link(
 $parent->term_id ) ) . '">'.$name.'</a>' . $separator;
         else
                 $chain .= $name.$separator;
         return $chain;
 }
 }}}

 So developers can use it for getting any taxonomy parents.
 The possible problem is: The given taxonomy is not Hierarchical.
 The solution is checking taxonomy by {{{is_taxonomy_hierarchical(
 $taxonomy )}}} and return false if it is not.
