+To reproduce: 
+
+1. Add the backlinkbug plugin below to ikiwiki. 
+2. Create a page named test.mdwn somewhere in the wiki. 
+3. Refresh ikiwiki in verbose mode. Pages whose bestlink is the test.mwdn page will be printed to the terminal.
+4. Delete test.mdwn.
+5. Refresh ikiwiki in verbose mode again. The same pages will be printed to the terminal again.
+6. Refresh ikiwiki in verbose mode another time. Now no pages will be printed.
+
+bestlink() checks %links (and %pagecase) to confirm the existance of the page.
+However, find_del_files() does not remove the deleted page from %links (and %pagecase).
+
+Since find_del_files removes the deleted page from %pagesources and %destsources,
+won't it make sense for bestlink() to check %pagesources first? --[[harishcm]]
