I was having problems with getting the base name so I went for the
fool-proof way:

	`function get_base(){
   		 return end(explode('/',
str_replace(array('\\','/pluginsfilename.php'),array('/',''),__FILE__)));
	}`

I haven't had a problem since.

I agree, I'm stuck with ajaxd-wordpress instead of ajaxed-wordpress,
and now I can't even change it because of links to the former.
