#25316: Inconsistent behavior in wpmu_current_site() that impacts external object
caches

 We're running a multisite sub-directory install, using the Networks for
 WordPress to serve multiple domains from one install.  We're also using
 memcached as a persistent object cache.

 Since we need to support multiple networks we do not set the
 DOMAIN_CURRENT_SITE or PATH_CURRENT_SITE constants as instructed by the
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Create_A_Network network install
 instructions].

 We've noticed some odd behavior after a fresh install, before we add
 additional networks due to logic in wpmu_current_site().

 Excerpting the relevant code from ms-load.php:


 {{{
 $current_site = wp_cache_get( 'current_site', 'site-options' );
 if ( $current_site )
         return $current_site;

 $sites = $wpdb->get_results( "SELECT * FROM $wpdb->site" ); // usually
 only one site
 if ( 1 == count( $sites ) ) {
         $current_site = $sites[0];
         wp_load_core_site_options( $current_site->id );
         $path = $current_site->path;
         $current_site->blog_id = $wpdb->get_var( $wpdb->prepare( "SELECT
 blog_id FROM $wpdb->blogs WHERE domain = %s AND path = %s",
 $current_site->domain, $current_site->path ) );
         $current_site = get_current_site_name( $current_site );
         if ( substr( $current_site->domain, 0, 4 ) == 'www.' )
                 $current_site->cookie_domain = substr(
 $current_site->domain, 4 );
         wp_cache_set( 'current_site', $current_site, 'site-options' );
         return $current_site;
 }
 }}}

 When the 'current_site' cache item exists, the $domain and $path globals
 are not updated to reflect the cached values before returning.  This is
 inconsistent with behavior exhibited when cached values do not exist.  The
 end result is that trying to access pages on non-root sites (blogs)
 results in a 404 since the current site (blog) is not set correctly.

 We get around this by installing another network and flushing the cache
 (after which the 'current_site' cache item is never set).

 It's a minor issue, but I would think the $path and $domain variables
 should be set consistently.
