[Mediawiki-l] Variables in Wikitext & Browser Caching

Something doesn't compute here Rowan.

I've got a template {{MPHist}} which is included on my main page to
handle "on this day" kind of things.

In turn contains
...
{{MPHist/{{CURRENTMONTHNAME}}{{CURRENTDAY}}}}

which selects the proper subpage for the date.

And this seems to work.

So there seem to be cases where system variaables do work as expected.
 Note that this is even with (or maybe because of?) an extra level of
indirection.
