[wikka-community] 1.2 styles do not correctly install

The problem stems from an intentional design flaw in Microsoft OSs that goes
back to the first IBM PCs in the early 1980s. Apache handles it okay: it
recognizes that backslashes in addresses need to be converted to the forward
slash used by all non-Microsoft OSs.
WikkaWiki has, or should have, something like a MakeAddressSafe() function.
Either that isn't being called at a point where it should be called, or it
needs to be extended to convert Microsoft backslashes to PHP compliant
forward slashes. (By default, PHP will recognize a backslash in many strings
as an escape character and eat it, and possibly change the following
character to something unintended).
