The problem is that the constant isn't being subsituted in the 
parseFunc. The PAGE_TEMPLATE constant setting is empty in my constants, 
which I believe means that the target should be set to "page" by 
default. Regardless of the default setting -- it should never be set to 
the un-substituted constant {$PAGE_TARGET}.

The fix on this install is to override the constant substitution (which 
seems to fail) by including the following two lines of TS in the template:

lib.parseFunc.tags.link.typolink.target =
lib.parseFunc_RTE.tags.link.typolink.target =

I'm surprised others aren't having this problem with RC1, since it seems 
to me that the problem must lie in how constants are being substituted 
into the typoscript. I guess there must be an explanation I'm not seeing.
