Thanks for the comment Dieter.

I'm just using <dtml-var breadcrumbs>. There are no further parameters.
Therefore, the magic of <dtml name="..."> should supply the appropriate
this() argument.

The external method works for other objects elsewhere in the heirarchy
-- the self argument of the external method is getting set correctly in
general. Just, not for this DTML Document.

Any other ideas? I have a workable workaround, so I'm not sufficiently
motivated to dive into the code just yet :-)
