We worked it out into a configuration very similar but not with the
sublocation (I considered that a mistake, though I know they work we
just aren't "officially" supporting them yet, right?).  Below I have
pasted the last known config.

server {
	listen		443;
	ssl		on;
	ssl_certificate		/usr/local/www/ssl/server.crt;
	ssl_certificate_key	/usr/local/www/ssl/server.key;

	root /usr/local/www;
	server_name	secure.domain.org;

	error_log	/var/log/nginx-error.log info;

	keepalive_timeout 65;

	location / {
		root /usr/local/www/data;
		index index.htm;
	}

	location /wiki {
		alias /usr/local/www/dokuwiki;
                index doku.php;
	}

	location ~ ^/wiki(/.*\.php)$ {
		include fastcgi_params;
		fastcgi_param SCRIPT_FILENAME /usr/local/www/dokuwiki$1;
		fastcgi_pass localphp;
	}
	
	location ~ \.php$ {
		include fastcgi.conf;
		fastcgi_pass localphp;
	}
}
