In SUL3 mode, the local wiki always uses login; signup happens on the central wiki/domain. That means the signup link must point to Special:Userlogin, and the local authentication provider must redirect to Special:CreateAccount instead of Special:Userlogin on the central domain (and the process of redirecting back must still work).

This can be done with a bunch of hooks, but I wonder if there's a nicer way where AuthManager can somehow detect that the site uses a remote identity provider and automatically generates the signup link like that. We do something similar already to hide the signup link when no provider supports it (see the calls to AuthManager::canCreateAccounts() in SkinTemplate) but currently that does not have the concept of providers which cannot create accounts but can autocreate them.
