The way I understand the file handeling system, this should not load.
Because every file's references must be handled relative from the file
being loaded (not to the main file).
So calling sub/sub2.ldr from sub/sub1.ldr will look at sub/sub/sub2.ldr.
If that fails it checks the ldraw tree.
Also I was told a while back it's an unwritten rule to only use dirs in
references for subparts and primitives, everything else is off limit :)
This is the way I implemented it in LD4DStudio after a discussion in
this group a while back.
Greetings,
Roland
