[Mediawiki-l] "Template:Safesubst" Error

[John W. Foster]

I am seeing this error on a Mediawiki 1.17; A call for;
"Template:Safesubst"   is what the wiki is describing as this
instruction set. "{{#ifeq:{{{subst}}}|SUBST"
Anyone know what I need to do to get these to not appear as 'template'
calls, & of course to work.
Thanks
