Following the XML official terminology, it's not called @@close_tag,
but @@end_tag (and there is also @@start_tag, not @@open_tag). (The
cryptic error message was generated by not FreeMarker, but Xalan,
because when FreeMarker's XML wrapped doesn't understand the
expression, it forwards it to Xalan. Or to Jaxen... BTW, Jaxen is
better for FreeMarker.)
