Comment:

 REQUEST_URI is not a good way to handle this situation.

 MU will need more attention to handle
 www.example.tld/subdirectoryBlog/postings/

 There needs to be a settings/options page to allow users use of www.

 In the mean time, see http://wpmututorials.com/hacks/forcing-mu-to-use-
 www/

 Reference:
 Currently 'PATH_CURRENT_SITE' is defined in the config file and defaults
 to the relative directory.  From here, wpmu-settings.php does a clean job
 of containing current_site->[id, domain, path, etc...].  this information
 is also cached.  Site checking is also done to eventually send out to the
 user the correct information when calling $current_site->path.
