Summary:   special_page_limit not honored

Initial Comment:
In the config, I have:

  special_page_limit      = 5000

but my recentechanges bot only operates on 1000 entries, then it stops. Maybe, the limitation
is within MediaWiki, or the bot must be run with
admin powers or something else, I have not
investigated.

I do not really know, when this was changed, but
some months ago, it would work as expected, and
nothing was changed in the config file since.
