Problem is that this is rather deeply in the moinmoin code and i am not
sure i want to mess with it at the moment.  It is strange, though, that
all other search engines seem to ignore those particular links 
except in the recent case.  If anybody cares enough please open an 
issue in the tracker and assign it to me.
