[ic] 4.8.1 Leaving 'template:' header blank in pages

These are generated using 4.8.1's 'template edit' feature.  After submitting
the note to the list, I completely removed interchange (rpm -e, rm
/var/lib/interchange -Rf, rm /usr/lib/interchange -Rf).  I then re-installed
from downloaded 4.8.1 rpms (rpm -ivh).  Using the latest install, I created
a new cat based on foundation.  Using the template editor, we created a new
template based on leftright called 'test'.  Test would not work.
Furthermore, pages based on 'test' would not display all of the normal page
options as you would expect.

Upon inspecting the template file, we found the the 'ui_template' var would
read 'leftright' instead of 'yes'.  Whenever we viewed the 'test' with the
template editor, the contents we blank even though 'cat test' revealed a
copy of 'leftright'.

We have since copied the 'foundation' folder to 'new_style' and switched the
'default' symlink from 'foundation' to 'new_style'.  This way we can edit
'leftright' directly and avoid these problems.
