To further clarify, it appears that UpdatePage() has several dependencies
which prevent it from executing at the time config.php is being run.  We
tried simply bringing in stdconfig.php early, but that simply exposed
another dependency (maybe $LinkPattern?).  I copied that in from pmwiki.php
further on down and that exposed another dependency.  About that time I
figured things were going south on that particular approach...

Has anybody gotten UpdatePage() working when called directly from
config.php?

Noskule, you could copy the writeptv() and sub-functions from toolbox.php
and replace UpdatePage() with a simple WritePage().  You lose some
functionality (historical revisions?) but it might get you where you want to
be...
