My guess is that you might be seeing an artifact of HTTP cache control.

I think the problem was not that the new link in InterWikiMap wasn't
recognized,
but that the old cached version of whatever page contained that
interwiki-link
was still being viewed.  Adding the "Google:foo" (or, if I'm right, making
any
change) to a page, forces the cached version to be out of date.  If I'm
right,
a shift-reload would have done the same thing.

If you don't like this behavior try adjusting the setting of CACHE_CONTROL
in index.php.

I am a linux-head and so never use IE.   Carsten who (I think) created the
sidebar theme is a mac-head, and so doesn't use IE either.

If you can tell us what needs to be done to fix it, (or better still, send
us a set of patches) we probably will.
