Problem:

Coldfusion is supposed to search recursively for custom tags and stop at the first result.  Therefor, I assume the CF template highest in the folder structure will be called before any with the same name in subdirectories.  This is not how it is currently functioning.CF is calling my custom tags in the "[siteroot]/customTags/CVS/Base" directory instead of those in the "[siteroot]/customTags" directory.  This happens consistently, every time, with every custom tag.This bug has little effect in a production environment but causes a lot of lost development time.
Method:

1) Create a new directory and add a custom tag path mapping to it in CF Administrator.2) Place a custom tag in this directory.3) Create a subdirectory called "CVS", and then a subdirectory within "CVS" called "Base".4) Copy your custom tag into this "CVS/Base" directory.5) Modify the custom tag at the root to change the output slightly, so you can tell which is running.6) Restart the CF Server7) Run a ColdFusion template that calls this custom tag via: "<CF_CustomTagName>".8) Verify that the incorrect custom tag was called:   8a) The output shown will be from the original custom tag, currently in "[customTagDir]/CVS/Base" and now from the modified custom tag, currently in "[customTagDir]".   8b) The debug information will show that the custom tag being called resides in "[customTagDir]/CVS/Base".
