Fred, as always, you were correct. I removed the monkey patching code
and then I fixed the test helper to:

def current_theme_path(type)
path = "/themes/" + @opt_default_theme + "/images/" if type == 'img'
path = "/themes/" + @opt_default_theme + "/stylesheets/" if type ==
'css'
path = "/themes/" + @opt_default_theme + "/javascripts/" if type ==
'js'
path = "/themes/" + @opt_default_theme + "/swfs/" if type == 'swf'
return path
end

...

And finally in my layout:

<%= stylesheet_link_tag(current_theme_path('css')+ @opt_theme +'.css')
%>
<%= javascript_include_tag(current_theme_path('js')+ @opt_theme +'.js')
%>

.. and it works.

I'll work with this bit of code instead and see how it affects asset
caching.
