Variables in path not expand correctly in links

[GoogleCodeExporter]

I discovered a problem in one of our projects the path to transformations in 
the job is hardcoded with a variable as 
${root_dir}/${content_source_import_dir}/transforms/read_all_files.ktr
In kettle.properties:
root_dir=C:/workspace/cdp/src/pentaho/contentSource/provider/lmv/kredit
content_source_import_dir=import

but in the documentation the link from the job to the transformation expand it 
rigth but does not remove the variable! 

The link gets: 
C:/pentahodoc/cdp/html/contentSource/provider/lmv/kredit/import/${root_dir}/${co
ntent_source_import_dir}/transforms/read_all_files.ktr.html.
But it should be:
C:/pentahodoc/cdp/html/contentSource/provider/lmv/kredit/import/transforms/read_
all_files.ktr.html

Added a smal test example.

lines for kettle.properties:
root_dir=C:/slask
content_source_validation_dir=test1

Using revision 61.

thanks for the detailed bug report. I think it is very similar to issue 31 so 
you might want to subscribe to that one if you want to keep track of further 
developments.
