> There is no way of providing an absolute path (e.g. c:\temp\wibble.tmp) to the 
> FileResourceLoader because it always attempts to use the 2-argument File 
> constructor (even if the path component is empty).
> The following fix resolves this problem:
> In FileResourceLoader.findTemplate replace:
>   File file = new File( path, template );
> with
>   File file = null;
>   if("".equals(path))
>     file = new File( template );
>   else
>     file = new File ( path, template );
> Note this does not introduce any security risks as the FileResourceLoader must 
> be configured to search the empty ("") path.
