ikiwiki's map directive is full of surprises. I have put a snapshot of the site as it was when I saw the following problem at http://scratch.madduck.net/web__phd.martin-krafft.net__map-bug-2.tgz and can revert there any time, but I need to move on.

I have a few tags starting with a (abridged list):

$ ls wiki/factors/tag/a*
[...]
wiki/factors/tag/active/:
index.html

wiki/factors/tag/affects/:
contributors/  developers/  users/
[...]

In wiki-wc/factors/tag.mdwn, I have a map for these tags:

\[[map pages="factors/tag/*"]]

and this works, except that for whatever reason, it actually sorts the three affects/* tags under active:

$ w3m -dump wiki/factors/tag/index.html | grep active -A3
              ○ active
                  ■ contributors
                  ■ developers
                  ■ users

This really blows my mind. :)
