+Hmm, according to the docs, shouldn't the following work?
+<pre>
+[ 74 ikipostal/test ]  ikiwiki --dumpsetup out.setup foo bar
+[ 75 ikipostal/test ]  perl -MIkiWiki::Setup -e'IkiWiki::Setup::load("out.setup");'
+out.setup: Can't use an undefined value as an ARRAY reference at /usr/share/perl5/IkiWiki/Setup.pm line 37.
+BEGIN failed--compilation aborted at (eval 15) line 233.
+</pre>
+
+From looking at the code, it seems that a global hash %config should be 
+initialized somehow.
+
+This is in ikiwiki 2.62.1. I think this call used to work in 2.54 (when you first refactored the setup IIRC)
