[wp-hackers] WP_CONTENT_DIR and PLUGINDIR

I was playing with this yesterday trying to update podPress to be  
compatible with WP_CONTENT_DIR while still maintaining some  
compatibility with ABSPATH and PLUGINDIR, it's not very  
straightforward how to use this new constant to me - unless you want  
to scrap compatibility with versions < 2.5.x or introduce some fairly  
complex checking.

I finally decided that creating get_content_dir_path() and  
get_content_dir_url() functions (and wrapping them in  
if_function_exists checks) was probably the best approach for backward  
compatibility and supporting the new feature.

Cheers,
