 I tried creating a custom taxonomy called 'author'. When using
 wp_tag_cloud or get_terms I got a list of terms with links, but the links
 would either take me to an empty archive page, or one with just a couple
 of the posts with a term from that taxonomy. As soon as I changed the
 taxonomy name from 'author' to something else everything was fine. Looks
 like there's a bug involving using 'author' as a taxonomy name.
