Comment (by blindmikey):

 Issue came about because the theme was storing templates in a subdirectory
 within the theme, and then setting the wp_option "stylesheet" to
 "{theme_dir}/templates" where {theme_dir} is the directory name of the
 child theme. This worked fine in 6.4.0, and in releases prior, but stopped
 working in 6.4.2 - causing every page to render blank.

 The fix for us moving forward is to use the 'stylesheet_directory' filter
 to set the stylesheet directory to "{theme_dir}/templates".

 However this update will effect any theme that's updating the stylesheet
 directory via updating the "stylesheet" wp_option.
