By definition there should *be* no dead-end redirects, unless they are faulty. So... we'd _want_ to see them if there are any, right?

Well, the problem does mean a dead-end redirect? On the french wikipedia, a good proportion of the pages listed on Special:DeadendPages are "normal" redirects to non-dead-end articles pages. Is this the desired behaviour?

I'm pretty sure not.
Dead-end pages is only supposed to find pages that have no links in the links table. Pages are only supposed to be marked as redirects if they've got one link -- the redirect link.
So, like, the definition of a redirect is that it has 1 link, and a dead-end page has 0 links. 1 != 0. So this shouldn't happen.
So something Very Wrong is going on.

I'm not sure at all but I think the problem is in the "FROM cur LEFT JOIN links ON cur_id = l_from" part. Shouldn't this be "FROM cur LEFT JOIN links ON cur_id = l_to" ?

But we already have a "broken redirect" special page for that matter. ;)
