I had a couple of problems converting some old PWS swikis to
FourStrongWinds. I'm not sure that they are bugs -- its more likely I
wasn't using the converter correctly. In any case, here is a small
changeset which captures my workarounds.

Fixes 2 problems I discovered while trying to convert several wikis
from PWS in squeak2.2 to FourStrongWinds. The first is in
PWS2Comanche class >>convertSwiki:. Changed swikiPage to swikiFile
when extracting text from the old page to put into the new. The
second problem I had was in SwikiModule>>setupParent. I had problems
starting up Comanche because the newly converted wikis all had a
'parent'->nil association in a preferences dictionary. The code
decides that a parent does not exist only if there is no entry with a
key of 'parent'. But if any entry exists, even if the value at
'parent' is nil, the code tries to setup a parent, which leads to a
'swiki parent does not exist' or somesuch exception"!
