fix for freemarker findByAnd bug

I'd like to install a custom-compiled version of freemarker, with the 
fix I have posted to this list previously.  Upstream seems amicable to 
the change, if it is made so that it doesn't break backwards 
compatibility.  The last patch I sent does so.

I know in the past we have resisted having custom-compiled versions.  In 
this case, I think we need to act a bit more quickly to fix this bug in 
ofbiz, as it's preventing trunk from being used(all the findByAnd calls 
in ftl don't work right now), and freemarker hasn't released a new 
version yet.

I am favor of going ahead with this, we cannot have the HEAD of the 
trunk unusable too long....

Regards,
Hans

Was going to link to the upstream bug(I've already done that in the 
local git commit).  I'm guessing 2.3.20, but I don't think I get to make 
that call.

I've got to sign a CLA first, before they will accept my patch; that 
means waiting until Monday, as I have to send it snail-mail, then 
however long it takes to wander across the country.

Because of that CLA delay, I thought I should try to get it fixed 
sooner; I don't want to wait for yet another week.

That's fine with me. Please include in the commit log a note describing 
which forthcoming version we should replace the custom code with.
