Nope. Actually this attack didn't even break into the Swiki. The guy used
existing, unlocked pages which were linked from the front page. Since the
links are updated when the referenced page title changes this results in a
screw-up of the front page, too.

You can see this if you look at the history of the edited pages (I just
restored the history of Squeak page).
