 * Shouldn’t /wp-links/links.weblogs.com.php state require_once($abspath.’b2config.
   php’); instead of require_once(‘b2config.php’);?

 * b2config.php resides in the working directory specified in $abspath. links.weblogs.
   com.php does not, but when this script is run the it’s working directoryis not
   the same as $abspath, so prepending $abspath points links.weblogs.com.php to 
   the right directory.

 * Also the $abspath variable comes _from_ b2config.php. If you have modified your
   installation as such I suggest you change it back because it’s a security hazard.(
   $abspath could be specified through the querystring and allow remote code execution.)
