In each case, instead of rendering output, the php sends a redirect header to (I can only assume) itself over and over and over. So IE gives up in 30s, NN gives up with an error message "Redirection limit for this URL exceeded." and Opera continues redirecting forever.
So here's my action point and question: Is this a known problem? Is there a known fix/workaround? Does the known fix imply upgrading MediaWiki to an unstable build or changing the database? Does anyone else experience this problem or have they fixed it? If there is no good fix I'll simply start commenting out lines of the PHP source until it works, since these all seem to be targeted to user settings flexibility which is a concern I do not share at the moment. Correct me if I'm wrong :)
You can comment out the redirect part in RawPage.php, about 2/3 down. I'm not sure it even makes a difference for IE, but haven't thoroughly tested it.
