geth 1.5 - static-nodes.json location for a private network ? File ignored?

Question

Since upgrading to 1.5 the file static-nodes.json seems to be ignored, same deal with trusted-nodes.json

I am confused on what the location should now be.

The documentation states that

You can configure permanent static nodes by putting something like the following into /static-nodes.json (this should be the same folder that your chaindata and keystore folders are in)

However keystore and chaindata are now in different directories for private a network in 1.5.

The peers run with the --nodiscover flag

Has anyone managed to get it working on 1.5 for a private net and how ?

Note: admin.addPeer still works just fine
