Deprecated parameter in mailchimp plugin

In the mailchimp plugin, on line 60, we call load_plugin_textdomain() with a deprecated parameter (see http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/load_plugin_textdomain)

It’s an easy fix: Instead of giving it the relative path to language files from ABSPATH as the second parameter, the second parameter should be false. Third parameter should be relative path to language files from WP_PLUGIN_DIR, ie: dirname( plugin_basename( __FILE__ ) ) . ‘/po/’

This is the only place this plugin uses the constant MCSF_LANG_DIR, you should probably just add ‘, false’ as the second parameter and change the constant on line 1158.

Hoping for this to be fixed.
