I don't know that I can really consider this a bug. It's very easy to
make infinite loops with symlinks. You can trap all sorts of
command-line scripts and so on in them.

I don't understand what you mean by "every file that's not .html."
The 3.1.5 version indexes .txt and .pdf files. Beyond that, it would
have a difficult time working out the MIME-type of the file without
either a mime.types file or something like mod_mime_magic in the
Apache server. If it doesn't know what type of file it is, it *has*
to go to the server!
