Transcluding special page overwrites page name

Expected behavior: Page title is 'User:HappyDog'
Actual behaviour: Page title is 'Special:Newpages/limit=10'

Many apologies for the vague nature of this bug report, but I have no idea where the bug is here. It could be a MW bug, something specific to MediaWiki.org, or even something to do with the markup on my user page. All I know is that this didn't used to be a problem, and now it is, and my page has not been edited in the meantime.

Tweaked summary, was able to replicate on my userpage on mediawiki.org, can't replicate in trunk.

Have done a bit more digging and discovered the following:

Clicking 'edit' on the page gives the correct page title. However, clicking 'show preview' gives the incorrect title.

Removing the transclusion, {{Special:Newpages/limit=10}}, from the page markup gives the correct page title on 'show preview', so I'm guessing it's a problem with this transclusion (though I haven't tested saving this).
