Subject: redirect pages not properly followed.
Original description:
A disambiguation page interwiki links to a redirect page which redirects
to a diambiguation page. The link is incorrectly not followed.

Note: \[\[de:A61\]\] is a redirect to \[\[de:A 61\]\] which is a disambiguation.

Here is the output $relevant lines only$:

Starting off a redirect on the source side did the job. See below.
So likely, the problem is that, the disambig status of the source page
was not properly stored in the above case, but now was.
