--- Comment #1 from Rich Bowen <rb...@apache.org> ---
Fixed in r1933749 (trunk) and r1933750 (2.4.x).

Documented wildcard sub-type matching in ExpiresByType (e.g. image/*). Verified
in mod_expires.c: L323 checks for /* and sets a wildcards flag, L488-510
implements the fallback lookup. This feature has existed since 2003 (r100126)
but was never documented. Added explanation and example to the ExpiresByType
directive documentation.
