When using CondAuth() or other similar functions [1] it's important to
remember to place them as late as possible in your config.php to avoid
various caching issues which can be very difficult to troubleshoot
otherwise.

See http://www.pmwiki.org/wiki/PmWiki/LocalCustomizations#configphp-order.

[1] ResolvePageName(), CondAuth(), PageTextVar(), PageVar(),
RetrieveAuthPage() or others -- basically anything that is likely to
require the reading of a page during the processing of the function.  (That
list of functions pasted from the link above.)
