Thank you Brian for the explanations. I d'ont have the courage anymore to track 
down all the hardcoded index.php, and if you say it may be fragile, I think I 
have no other option but to lose 1GB of my available space copying mediawiki 
directory 4 or 5 times.
It would be nice however if possible to have other options for multiwikis, as 
all hostings don't allow symlinks or subdomains / domain aliases.

For ereg_replace, I don't know why preg_replace gave horrible results on my 
server, but anyway, I should'nt need it anymore.
