The only "magic" that pmwiki does is in the template where it tries to
load a SideBar page from the current group before it tries to load the
SideBar page from the Site group. I don't think the transition script
does anything WRT SideBar pages.  So, if you're in the Main group,
it'll try loading Main.SideBar before Site.SideBar.  The same may be
true of your old skins too.

Except that there is no Main.SideBar in pmwiki-2.0.10/wikilib.d. Do you
perhaps have pmwiki configured to search another directory that does
have a Main.SideBar? Or did you merely copy Main.SideBar such that it
still exists?
