[Bug 53787] In forward proxy, doesn't cache disk anymore

--- Comment #3 from Vincent Caron <vc...@bearstech.com> ---
Same issue while Apache 2.2.22 from Debian 7.0.

'CacheEnable /' is not caching forward-proxied any more, but it can be done
with 'CacheEnable http://'. Which is actually much better since we can
separately control if we cache local and/pr proxied content.

But the behaviour change is not documented in
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/mod/mod_cache.html#cacheenable - I only found
out while seeing the 'CacheEnable ftp://' example.

My old Apache 2.2.9 was caching forward-proxied requests with 'CacheEnable /'.
Thus the change occured in the 2.2.9 (r666274) - 2.2.22 (r1235965) interval.
That's a looots of commits :
http://svn.apache.org/viewvc/httpd/httpd/trunk/modules/cache/mod_cache.c?view=log

I suggest to change the doc :
* change the 'CacheEnable /' as 'CacheEnable http://' after the '# Cache
proxied url's' line (this is obivously a typo)
* specify at which Apache version this behaviour changed (sorry, dunno which)
