Subtle new feature?

This last set of patches caused me a little head scratching.
Probably not a BadThing(tm). Here's the scene.

I keep my web tree in /usr/local/www/server and /usr/local/www/docs.
My access.conf had the following:

# Document Root Permissions
<Directory /usr/local/www/docs >

        Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes Multiviews

        AllowOverride All

        <Limit GET>
                order allow,deny
                order allow,deny
                allow from all
        </Limit>

</Directory>


My srm.conf had the following:

DocumentRoot /www/docs


/www is a symlink to /usr/local/www.  WierdThings(tm) happen.
I think that the current behavior is most sane.
