Ha. So much for that idea. The cause of the problem is Matt Goodall's
patch to allow random page applications to work with his standalone
server. Until we work out a solution that allows both deployment methods
to work, it's probably enough just to revert this change - randompage.py,
line 26:

            page = uri_path.split(base_path, 1)[1]

should be changed to read:

            page = uri_path.split(base_path + '/', 1)[1]
