We're making progress. We is four people who each solved a bit of the puzzle.
It all started with a server reorg, after which the script had disappeared. It is back, with proper privileges, synched to Apaches.
Still the script did not run.
Finally today we found out the script stumbles over new folder name 'wikipedia.org' in the executable path. It thinks all 60 or so chars after the dot are a file extension. Oops.
I'll patch this tomorrow. After that it will still only run properly on iso sites, but I'll add utf-8 support soon (for built-in european extended ascii character set).
Later I will add support for full unicode character set, using external fonts, but that will take one or two months, as I'm doing some other stuff right now.
