If a page has a discussion page, which is then removed, ikiwiki seems not
to notice that the discussion page has gone away, and does not update the
link to it in the action bar.

> Reprocued with 2.5 --[[Joey]]

Looks to me like loadindex is populating %destsources with information
that the old discussion page exists, which isn't invalidated when ikiwiki
discovers that the page is gone. This leaves dangling links whenever *any*
page is deleted, not just a discussion page. --Ethan

Here's a patch that trawls through %destsources deleting pages when they
are found to be deleted. It's a little inelegant, but it's simple and it 
works. --Ethan

Thankyou for the [[patch]]! [[Done]]. --[[Joey]]
