That sounds like what I'm seeing. The failure (traceback below) happens during
the compile itself.
The exception is raised during the eval in parse_template:
# check whether it extends a layout
while 1:
match = re_extend.search(text)
if not match:
break
t = os.path.join(path, eval(match.group('name'), context))
try:
fp = open(t, 'rb')
Perhaps the eval should be in a try, to make the error reporting a little more
explicit? Otherwise it's a little confusing for code that works normally to
crash a compile.
