otherwise, it's a one-item numbered list.
No, that's an urban myth; the check for "#redirect" is case insensitive. Dori has it right, this is new to v1.4 (currently in late beta).
While we're on the subject, though, there is something that annoys me about that feature: because it's been placed as special case code in the article handling, rather than just added to the "parser", redirects still show up as numbered lists when you do a preview. This rather defeats what would otherwise be a big advantage of the feature: the easy ability to spot if you've typed the redirect in correctly. If I get round to it, I'll write an alternative implementation where it's in the parser, where it should have been all along (as soon as a "don't follow redirect" condition is detected, the page should just be rendered as it is, with "#redirect" being rendered as the arrow).
