The problem lies function hook_uri2line, beginning on line 1285:

1. the module (I think) wants to make sure that the resulting filename starts
with a slash, but it uses the ap_os_is_path_absolute function. If the filename
does indeed start with a slash this call will succeed on Unix, but it will fail
on Windows because ap_os_is_path_absolute will expect a path starting with D:/
or //machine/share. Hence the "400 Bad Request" error.

2. next the module check if the first part ("the prefix") of the path exists.
This is done using the prefix_stat function which works only on Unixes (it
expects the path to start with a slash!)

I think the first part is unnecessary and that the second part should be based
on core.c (as stated in the comments).
