[PATCH] Re: proxy access restrictions

[Dean Gaudet <dg...@arctic.org>]

Try this:

<Directory ~ "^proxy:">
order deny,allow
...
</Directory>

The old syntax is probably broken because of my change in * semantics --
the change which made it respect / boundaries.

The patch below should make the old syntax work, but I'm not sure we want
to do it.  It won't affect the newer directory_walk code that's intended
for supporting directories, as opposed to the special proxy: case.  I'd
like to deprecate Directory proxy: ... but it doesn't have to be now.  So
yeah I guess this interim patch is fine.
