[Bese-devel] TAL template searching problem

This is what I wrote on 02 Feb 2006:

Well, half a year later I got bitten by the same problem again when
updating yaclml. So, how about making the following change, please?

{
hunk ./src/tal/handlers.lisp 89
-          `(funcall (load-tal ,generator ,(merge-pathnames template-name *tal-truename*))
+          `(funcall (load-tal ,generator ,template-name)
}
