 When the BuddyPress Sites component is not active, access to `wp-
 signup.php` should be allowed for logged-in users when the WordPress
 settings are appropriately set.

 At present, `bp_core_wpsignup_redirect()` redirects away unless:

 1. The `stage` POST variable is set to `gimmeanotherblog`
 2. Access is attempted via `wp-admin/my-sites.php`

 It is possible for front-end menus to have links to `wp-signup.php` - but
 when the Sites component is not active, these will be redirected to
 `bp_get_signup_page()` and from there the the site homepage.

 This means that `wp-admin/my-sites.php` is the only route through which
 logged-in users can create additional sites.
