EE 2.1 Change for Third Party Devs

A quick note to third party EE developers. There is a small change to EE 2.1 and it may break your add-ons.

I wanted to make a quick broadcast to third party developers about a potential issue in the upcoming ExpressionEngine 2.1 release with your add-ons, depending on how you were building file paths with CodeIgniter.  If affected, your add-ons will break in ExpressionEngine 2.1, so it is very important for users of your add-ons to have updated code prior to its launch.  If you have been building your file paths with PATH_THIRD or APPPATH*, you should not be affected.
