Since Unicenter reportedly uses an EmulateIE7 X-UA-Compatible, presumably the product was still being maintained when IE8 was released. Maybe there's a slight chance that they could take out the bogus<base target>
For what it's worth, it looks like their <base target> comes right before some sort of footer... and I bet in IE6 the links in that footer actually target the toplevel window, which I also bet is the reason they have the <base> tag there. Of course that's all broken in IE7....
One 100% browser-side option (that I don't like but am mentioning for completeness) that would make both Unicenter and hyperlatex work without introducing code for keeping track of multiple<base target>s in the tree order would be limiting<base target> to<head> in the quirks mode but honoring the first<base target> in the other modes.
Hmm. I might be willing to deal with his quirk.... -Boris
