Subject: [PATCH] Redirect old posts

We have two sitautions to account for:

  1. Old posts had both uppercase and lowercase letters in slugs; and
  2. Some ids changed.

Lighttpd can't convert to lowercase and having a bunch of separate redirects
in my webserver configuration for the id changes is messy.  So, this script
is intended to be called only when a post contains an uppercase character in
the path.

I had wanted to avoid _any_ sort of dynamic scripts.  Oh well.

All other redirects are handled in the websevrer configuration (which isn't
part of this repo atm).
