get_option('home') ( get_option('siteurl') in theme-functions.php

Hi,
there is a small but serious error in theme-functions.php. Serious if you have installed wordpress in a subfolder.

In theme-functions.php the login- and register url are defined as

<a href="<?php echo get_option('home'); ?>/wp-login.php">

This results in an 404 not found error if wordpress is installed in a subfolder a and index.php in the root only (which quite a number of people prefer to do).

The correct option parameter should be <?php get_option('siteurl'); ?>/wp-login.php

get_option('siteurl') refers to the wordpress directory no matter if it is installed in the root or a subfolder and no longer a 404 error for those who have their wordpress install in a subfolder.
