Verified that Special:newpagesfeed does not have this bug.

Like special:newpages, special:newpagesfeed lists moved pages under their
original creation date. This makes logical sense, however when I was testing
examples on wikipedia, I noticed that lots of these pages were created long ago
(often several months), thus in a sense these "new pages" appear at the bottom
of the list, when they do appear, and hence perhaps still avoiding some
scrutiny.

Hmm, I wonder what the performance implications of Select * from recentchanges
inner join page on page_id = rc_cur_id where rc_new = 1 and rc_namespace !=
page_namespace and page_namespace = 0; Seems like that would be a bit more
scary then what normally can go on 'pedia. Then again, that's probably similar
to the performance of Special:Recentchangeslinked, so maybe... [Saying this
without doing any testing whatsoever, probably totally wrong].
