+**problem description:** when using an external plugin like rst, the cgi script (but not the build process) fails with the following words:
+
+    Unsuccessful stat on filename containing newline at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki.pm line 501.

+
+**setup used:** blank debian sid with ikiwiki 2.61 (but as the patch can be cleanly merged to git HEAD, i suppose this would happen on HEAD as well). perl version is 5.10.0-13.
+
+**problem analysis:** `strings ikiwiki.cgi` tells that the stored WRAPPED\_OPTIONS contain the string "&lt;/methodResponse&gt;\n" where i'd expect "rst" in `config{add_plugins}`. this seems to originate in the use of `$_` in the plugin loading function.
+
+**patch comment:** solves the problem on 2.61. as these are the first lines of perl i've knowingly written, i can not explain what exactly was happening there.
