Description:
Please go to http://www.mediawiki.org/w/index.php?title=Project:Support_desk/Sections/Installation&offset=20080714230708&limit=4&action=history and click the two 'last' diff links in the middle of the list (the two revisions by user Asset, 2008-07-14). Both only give fatal internal errors atm.

Linker::link passed invalid target

Quoting from #wikimedia-tech:
"<Raymond_afk> seems like the linker does not like a comment "Homepage shows up with just �‹�""

Note that these characters are only present in the comment for one of the two diffs. The newer one's summary is simply "Email problems".
