 Replying to [comment:2 dd32]:
 > The `wp-config.php` file that exists there, simply needs to exist, it
 doesn't need to actually contain the directives - you could simply have
 the contents as `<?php require $_SERVER['WP_CONFIG'];`

 This is what I have currently in my setup. The issue is that it
 complicates the update process. I cannot just have a pristine git tree
 cloned from github with official wordpress distribution. I have to have a
 custom branch containing wp-config.php on top of it. Similarly, I cannot
 just extract distribution tar into a directory and then atomically swap it
 with the current install. I have to copy wp-config.php there first.
