[wp-testers] Akismet 1.12 on IIS

Just upgraded and it appears that the fix Matt added for IIS users is no
longer in 2.0.

Here is the original bug that was fixed:
http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1599

The fix is the very last thing in changeset 3025.

That problem used to be caused by magic quotes being enabled on the server,
so your path was going from plugins\akismet to plugins\\akismet.  Calling
stripslashes within the function plugin_basename (in the wordpress core)
fixed the problem for me and others running 1.5.2.  I am working on
upgrading my blog to 2.0 RC3 now so I'll find out whether this is still
broken soon.

Well, I've reopened http://trac.wordpress.org/ticket/1976 a couple of times,
but it keeps getting closed as "Should be fixed in 1.12" and "Pretty sure
this is fixed"

I hate to keep reopening it, but perhaps it is just my installation (on IIS
5.0 with PHP ISAPI 4.4.1) Has anyone else running my install platform with a
WP API have Akismet working?

I feel so alone now ... (grin)
