 line 10: wp-blog-header.php
 {{{
         if ( !file_exists( dirname(__FILE__) . '/wp-config.php') &&
 !file_exists( dirname( dirname(__FILE__) ) . '/wp-config.php')) {
 }}}

 the dirname( dirname(__FILE__) ) refers to the directory ABOVE the wp-
 blog-header.php file so if someone put a wp-config.php file in that
 directory for say storage or what not it checks for it, there's no reason
 for this check, what if someone has a subdomain subdirectory installation
 that has a domain in the root then in the subdomain-subdirectory has an
 installation.

 alot of hosts place subdomain roots as subdirectories off their main root
 install this is counter productive
