In fact, patch r565 modifies the behavior of dlabel_open() because
filename is not NULL anymore if path is empty.

This new patch corrects the problem:

+	} else if (filename && *filename != 0 &&
+		   strcmp(filename, "%BOOT") != 0) {
 		goto out;
 	}
 	success = 1;

You can comment, I'll apply it later...
