If $wgUseImageResize is set, the image will be resized to fit this limit.
The resized image links to the big image.
Default for $wgMaxImageWidth is 800 pixels. Set to really big values (like 9999999) to disable.

This saves trouble in a number of places where we can now do joins with the link tables to get other info (such as cur_is_redirect!) as well as the name, and fewer bits need to be juggled on page renaming, as outgoing links no longer have to be changed (cur_id remains the same when a page is renamed).
rebuildLinks.inc and some of the tools in the 'maintenance page' still need to be updated to work with the new setup. (Special:Maintenance needs a *lot* of cleanup in general. It's kind of a catch-all of vaguely defined features which suck performance like a hydroelectric dam.)
Also I've slipped in some extra debug code. And, I think 'indexes.sql' is a big waste of time and should all be moved into tables.sql. Building indexes separately doesn't help on InnoDB and won't do anything on MyISAM either if you're just going to replace the table after it's built with an imported one from a dump which creates it with indexes.
