 Removing the code isn't an option. Perhaps a checked on checkbox "Update
 siteurl and home" next to the domain textbox will suffice.

 I guess that would work, yes. It just seems strange to force update those
 values like that when it breaks certain installations. From what I can see
 so far, this is the only real thing that interferes with the way I have it
 installed ATM. This installation has a number of benefits - mainly keeping
 the entire WPMU codebase in it's own svn:external, so you can keep it up
 to date easily, while managing the rest of your project via SVN as well.

 Enough of my whining though - a checkbox would "solve" the problem in the
 meantime. Perhaps we could default the value of the checkbox based on the
 current state of home vs siteurl.

 Checkbox means "update home and siteurl as well"

 If home != siteurl, default checkbox to OFF (my configuration)

 If home == siteurl, default checkbox to ON (most installations)

 Would that work?
