Re: config/1385: AddHander incorrectly interprprets extension of .cgi.txt (fwd)

Uh .... this is garbage!  There's no special handling of $ in that code,
go look at it.  I mentioned that before when the other PR like this went
by.

All this does is make files named .cgi$.txt behave wrong.

This is the way things are supposed to work.

If you only want files ending in .cgi to be handled, you should use:

      AddHandler cgi-script .cgi$

PR716 is on the same thing.
