Hmm... unfortunately, the help hasn't solved your problem yet. I wonder if others have seen this. Only those of us who restrict editing to logged in users would run into it, and only with large categories, so I can see it being missed. I'll have to get a 1.10 installation up for testing once I get our new dev server online (I try to stay one release behind so problems like this will be identified and fixed by the time I upgrade). In the meantime, perhaps check the sql query being sent? I think that's in the $dbr object in doCategoryQuery.
You might be interested in the SplitCategoryPage.php, an alternative Category page I wrote (that's why I'm interested in the category pages). It's slower and probably not up to MW coding standards, but it shows the counts for subcategories and articles, and displays all subcategories instead of only those that alphabetize within the range of articles (that's what the split is). I don't know if it will show the same problem or not.

Hi Jim,
nice trick ;-) But sad result: the request comes through. I echo'ed $from and $until, too, and both showed the correct content. But the page with the next 200 is not displayed. CategoryPage.php uses $wgUser in a way. Might there be a problem?
Anyway, I increased the value of $wgCategoryPagingLimit to 600 in DefaultSettings.php as a 'quick hack' so that my users are satisfied ;-)
zaydo, who really appriciates your help!
