Worse yet - how do we know that the handler is for mod_status,
when the handler isn't set in translate names?
SetHandler/Alias is really showing it's age. JKMount works because
the JKMount directive is handled in the translate_name hook.
SetHandler can't accomplish this.
Perhaps a LocationMountHandler {handlername} would work, as a 'generic'
method. But do we want to force each module to do so?
I honestly believe that Unsetting the DocumentRoot is simpler. It still
might be overridden (causing 'extra' stats) because of a mod_rewrite or
other directory mapping, but this makes life somewhat easier.
