 suggested that we could check for a return value of `1` here instead.

 step is to test `validate_file()` on those machines (maybe via WP-CLI) and
 verify the behaviour.

 I think the problem is that, validate_file performs abit another function.
 This function should check only relative paths,
 [https://buddypress.trac.wordpress.org/browser/branches/2.9/src/bp-core
 /bp-core-attachments.php?rev=11820#L1317 here] its trying to check
 absolute path, thats why its not working properly.

 We should remove it from that conditional or change what we checking.
