[opencms-dev] Strange navigation behaviour in 5.0 rc2 [Repost]

Hi!
I repost this, as my last post could not have been answered by anyone. Maybe
this time...
After an upgrade from 4.6.1 to 5.0 rc2, the navigation in my website (which 
was working perfectly before) is somehow strange. I use the standard method

<method name="getNavFold">2</method>

with the "2" indicating that the base directory for my navigation should be 
the second level.

My directory structure is the following (snippet, the "dir" indicates a new 
directory, the "file" a file):

dir: privat				<-- set as base directory
	file: index.html		<-- included in navigation: "Home"
	file: kontakt.html		<-- included in navigation: "Kontakt"
	dir: foto				<-- included in navigation: "Foto"
		file: index.html	<-- NOT included
	dir: hochzeit			<-- included in navigation: "Hochzeit"
		file: index.html	<-- NOT included
	dir: urlaub			<-- included in navigation: "Urlaub"
		file: index.html	<-- NOT included

The navigation should thus on all pages look like this (and did up to now):

Home
Kontakt
Foto
Hochzeit
Urlaub

For all files and directories, resp. on all index pages of the directories, 
the navigation is displayed correctly, EXCEPT on the "Home" page, i.e. the 
index page of the defined root directory. There, instead, the navigation 
looks like this:

Welcome to OpenCms
Release Notes

Those two entries disappear if I remove the navigation properties from the 
OpenCms release notes directory and the index.jsp, which both are included
by 
default in the installation. Then the navigation of the "Home" page is
empty.

I think that this behaviour is very strange, as I have defined the
navigation 
to start at the second level, not at the OpenCms root directory. Why is then

on my "Home" page the navigation of this root directory displayed (and not
on 
all the other pages)???

Thank you for your help!
Regards,
Ulrich
