+The git commit (in my `openid` branch) says it all:
+
+    Update IkiWiki::openiduser to work with Net::OpenID 2.x
+    
+    openiduser previously used a constructor that no longer works in 2.x.
+    However, all we actually want is the (undocumented) DisplayOfURL function
+    that is invoked by the display method, so try to use that.
+
+This bug affects ikiwiki.info (my commits show up in [[RecentChanges]] as http://smcv.pseudorandom.co.uk/ rather than smcv [pseudorandom.co.uk]).
+
+Relatedly, the other commit on the same branch would be nice to have:
+
+    Allow the openid plugin to be loaded but disabled, for its side-effect of defining IkiWiki::openiduser
+    
+    On various sites I have two IkiWiki instances running from the same
+    repository: one accessible via http and only accepting openid logins,
+    and one accessible via authenticated https and only accepting httpauth.
+    Ideally, the https version should still pretty-print OpenIDs seen in
+    git history.
