Hi Stuart,

8.6.6 appears to have a regression where it no longer loads backend
conf files from the document directory.

This appears to be because the first call to load_backend() uses the
default dirs of None which doesn't search the local directory and as
of 2a09198b6f84 raises an exception instead of a warning.  Just
providing a warning used to  then allow the second call
load_backend([indir]) to proceed and find the backend file in the
document directory.

The user guide says that backends are loaded from backends/<backend>
in locations 1,2,3 where 1 is the document directory but due to the
exception this does not happen.

With 8.6.6 all backends must be installed in shared locations (2 or 3)
which means that they may silently be applied to documents they were
not meant to.  This is of course problematical when developing changes
or improvements to backends already in use, so the problem needs to be
fixed.

I got lost trying to find the correct fix, so I am going to have to
leave it to you.

Cheers
Lex
