I have a very minimal config file with no mod_autoindex that reacts
strangely to an HTTP 0.9 GET for /.
On AIX, I get back the raw contents of the directory file (gibberish).
It turns out that default_handler opened the htdocs directory via
apr_file_open()/open() which caused the raw directory to be returned.
On Linux, I get a 500 error and I/O errors in the log (I guess Linux
doesn't like normal I/O on directories :) ).
r->finfo.filetype is APR_DIR. r->handler is httpd/unix-directory.
Why don't we decline if filetype is APR_DIR? (Conceivably it could be
useful to read from some of the other filetypes?)
Here is a silly patch. For now I'm filtering out APR_DIR files.

Now the client should portably get a 500 error. Better yet, error_log
has

On Linux, it did have
