Kevin is right, my initial report was wrong; this was for importing
graphics. I had been asking students to place matlab figures into writer
and they were quite confused by the AFS directory structure (they are
very new to athena). Of course, I filed the bug later when I had
forgotten exactly what the problem was.
Thanks Kevin!
