I've finished uploading one set of entries to my test wiki (the category pages were uploaded first) and am in the middle of uploading the second set. While browsing the category pages, I noticed that the subcategories for a particular category don't always show up on the category page when there are more than 200 articles in the category. Specifically, in a category of roughly 1000 entries, all of which show up in that category (200 at a time), the subcategories do not show up on the first page of articles listed, they appear on the second page, and then they disappear again on all the subsequent pages of articles. The categories are correctly specified in the category page source. Is this a known issue with a fix available?

Though you might want to add that aspect of it - that it completely fails to show subcats on the first page if they're not in the alphabetisation range of the articles - as that's a somewhat more severe problem than as stated in the bug.
