Comment (by Otto42):

 That didn't break this, that fixed a completely different problem.

 The underlying issue is indeed that if you set the per-page results too
 low, then the expected theme won't be in the first page of results, and so
 it cannot be pushed to the top. So, don't set the per-page results that
 low. Nothing in core does that.

 In the long run, this might be fixed by the new theme directory and new
 functionality in the API to use that directory (using WP_Query and such),
 but for now, per_page should probably never be lower than 8 or 10 or so.
 Core queries expect 30 per-page, I think.
