Basically if you go to
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/special:search/verbotene_liebe Mediawiki will
first check to see if there is a page named verbotene_liebe or something with
similar capitalization (Such as the actual aforementioned Verbotene_Liebe page
with the capital L). If there is such a page, it will give a 302 redirect to
the corresponding page with the correct capitalization, otherwise it will show
the search results of searching for that. (Basically it works like the go
button in the search bar on mediawiki).

This will work for all language Wikipedia's. (But it will only look for pages
within that language.
http://sco.wikipedia.org/wiki/special:search/verbotene_liebe is not going to go
to the page on DE). As a minor note, on non-english languages it will first
redirect you to the canonical special page name. For example on DE the
redirection chain is:

#Initial request: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/special:search/verbotene_liebe
#301 Moved Permenantly to:
http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spezial:Suche/verbotene_liebe
#302 Moved Temporarily to: http://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verbotene_Liebe
