Hmm... then how come that

http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/EditVariables?action=diag

gives me diagnostic output but

http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/EditVariables#DeleteKeyPattern?action=diag

doesn't? If the browser elided the anchor name, the server should see 
two identical URLs. (I can't think of an easy way to test this right now 
- it's a bit too late for me.)
