+The orphans plugin fails with an error when it has to deal with a page that contains '+' characters as part of the filename. Apparently the code uses regular expressions and forgets to quote that string at some cruicial point. The error message I see is:
+
+ \[[!orphans Error: Nested quantifiers in regex;
+ marked by <-- HERE in m/^(c++ <-- HERE |)$/ at
+ /usr/lib/perl5/vendor_perl/5.8.8/IkiWiki/Plugin/orphans.pm line 43.]]
