In my further investigation I now found the file 
da-DK/includes/members-menu.inc, which I think is the basis for the menu 
to the left in the above mentioned scrrenshot. E.g. line 5 in this file 
starts like this:

[% IF ( CAN_user_updatecharges ) %] =[% IF ( finesview ) %]<li 
class="active">[% ELSE %]<li>[%

What causes my problem is this text "%] =[% IF" - I now made a manual 
search and replace, removing all these extra "=" from all include-files 
and this actually seems to solve the problem. But this is a obviously a 
hack and not a fix, so where does these extra "=" come from, and why do 
they only appear, when the line contains a special character?
