------- Additional Comments From rbb@apache.org  2002-06-15 06:37 -------
I am marking this bug fixed.  The underlying problem was that the server wasn't
evaluating the ServerRoot directive when it was encountered in the config file.
Instead, the server would read in the entire file, and use the compiled in 
ServerRoot for most of the directives.  This has been fixed by evaluating the
ServerRoot as soon as it is encountered in the configuration file.

The bottom line is that we keep a minimal number of hard-coded paths in the server,
but only the ServerRoot is absolute, and we are much better about respecting that
value when it is replaced.
