Created attachment 10073 [details] The patch There is a serious backwards compatibilty (with older skins) problem in MediaWiki 1.18.1: 'headscripts' template data is set incorrectly when useHeadElement=false. This a) causes mediawiki.page.startup to not load and b) duplicates scripts which added with $wgOut->addScript(...). The fix is very simple - 1-line patch in the attachment.
(scripts are duplicated in <head> and bottom of the page)
Thanks for noticing, and thanks for the patch! Applied with a slight modification (removed the $this parameter to match the 1.19 function signature) in r112152.
Thanks for approving the patch. Do you plan to back-port it to 1.18.2?
I think you should back-port it, as well as bug 34687. These are serious bugs :).
