Attentive readers may remember my complaint some time ago that I had
a Catch-22 situation where the blocklist script would not let me
update the blocklist because it contained words in the blocklist.
This just happened to me again, and I think I have identified the problem.
Blocklist2 checks to see if you are editing the actual blocklist page
and just returns if that is the case.
However, on a Windoze server, pages named "Blocklist" and BlockList"
(note cap "L") map to the same file. On my system the actual file
name was Blocklist, but I entered BlockList in the URL, which
retrieved the correct page, but failed on the page name match test
inside the Blocklist2 code.
This can probably be fixed with a case-insensitive comparison.
