Description:
After a software update which occurred some time around 2007-11-30 16:47:40 UTC on the Romanian Wikipedia, accessing the URL associated with this bug (and all similar queries involving other revision IDs) results in the following error:

The revids= parameter may not be used with the list options (limit, startid, endid, dirNewer, start, end).

This used to work properly before the update, and I see no reason for the error since I'm not using any of those list options.

Unfortunately I don't know where to look for the MediaWiki version we're running, but I'm sure you can easily determine that. This prevents me from properly running an anti-vandalism tool which is used by 20 users on the Romanian Wikipedia.

If this is not actually a bug, then please let me know how I can use the new version of the API to retrieve that data. In case it's not obvious what I'm trying to do, I'm trying to read the timestamp and user for a specific revision of an article.

Thank you!
