Please send Cheetah problems to the Cheetah list, even if it's
related to a servlet. That way we don't bother the Webware
users who don't use Cheetah.

It looks like you have #def and #block reversed. #block belongs
in the parent template, _master.tmpl:
#block sectionTwo
<P> This block has not been overridden.</P>
#end block
This both sets the location of the output and provides default
text. Then the child template may do (or not do):
#def sectionTwo
<P>This is my custom content for section Two.</P>
#end def
It's possible to use #def in the parent too, but then you have to
explicitly set the location of the output:
$sectionTwo
or it won't appear at all. If Cheetah encounters '$sectionTwo'
before '#def sectionTwo' it *should* raise a NameMapper.NotFound
exception, but perhaps something is happening in the way the
parent and child templates are being processed under Webware.
Try replacing the '$section*' in _master.tmpl with #block's,
and using #def in _pageA.tmpl, and getting rid of the
'#def ... #include ... #end def' constructs, and see if that
clears up your problem.
