test case I can run, as instructions like "Create pages that sort different by
mtime and ctime" are not ones that I know how to follow (given that touch sets
*both*). --[[Joey]]

+> Sorry. I conflated Unix ctime and ikiwiki's creation time because I
+> didn't think the difference was important to this case. I'm a writer,
+> and I should have known better -- I appologize. Revised steps to
+> reproduce are below; feel free to delete this whole misunderstanding
+> to make the bug report more concise.
+>
+> 1. Create pages in the srcdir that should sort in one order by
+> last-modification time and in a diffent order by original creation
+> time. For example:
+>
+> $ echo -e '\[[!meta date="2007-01-01"]]\nNew.' > test/new.mdwn
+> $ echo -e '\[[!meta date="2006-01-01"]]\nOld.' > test/old.mdwn
+>
+> 2. Create a page that includes the files. For example:
+>
+>
+> $ echo '\[[!inline pages="test/*"]]' > sort-test.mdwn
+>
+> 3. Run ikiwiki. For example `ikiwiki --setup setup_file`
+>
+> 4. Pages are output incorrectly in modification time order. For example,
+> actual partial HTML of the sort-test/index.html from commands used
+> above (whitespace-only lines removed; one whitespace-only line
+> added):
+>
+> <div class="inlinepage">
+> <span class="header">
+> <a href="./../test/old/">old</a>
+> </span>
+> <p>Old.</p>

+> Posted Mon 01 Jan 2007 12:00:00 AM EST
+> </span>

+> 5. Run ikiwiki again with the same command line. For example: `ikiwiki --setup setup_file`
+>
+> 6. Pages are output correctly in creation time order. For example,
+> actual partial HTML of the sort-test/index.html from commands used

+> 7. Create a new page with the current Unix mtime and Unix ctime, but a
+> !meta date before the most recent creation date of another page.

+> $ echo -e '\[[!meta date="2005-01-01"]]\nOlder.' > test/older.mdwn
+>
+> 8. Run ikiwiki again with the same command line. For example: `ikiwiki --setup setup_file`
+>
+> 9. All previously sorted pages output correctly in order of their
+> creation time, but the new page is output incorrectly at the top as
+> if its modification time was its creation time. For example,

+> above (whitespace-only lines removed; two whitespace-only
+> lines added):
