second. The first parameter can be either a page name, or some other
destination file, as registered by `will_render`.
+If the second parameter is `undef`, the URL will be valid from any page on the
+wiki, or from the CGI; if possible it'll be a path starting with `/`, but an
+absolute URL will be used if the wiki and the CGI are on different servers.

If the third parameter is passed and is true, an absolute url will be
constructed instead of the default relative url.
