+If a page contains a WikiLink to itself, ikiwiki does not normally

+WikiLink to itself, a hyperlink is inserted, at least with the default
+`po_link_to` the link points to the English version of the page. Is there a

+Bug when editing underlay file
+------------------------------
+
+While I've gotten translated underlays working, there is a bug
+if the wiki is currently using a page from the underlay, and the master
+language version is edited. This causes the edited page to be saved
+to srcdir.. and all the translations get set to 0% and their
+po files have the translated strings "emptied". What's really going on
+is that these are entirely new po files not based on the old ones
+in the basewiki, and thus lacking translations. --[[Joey]]
