If you are not using RewriteRules then in .htaccess write

This will disable the working of RewriteRules also!
If you are using RewriteRules, create a symlink and using FilesMatch
specify the above option for the symlink name.
My objective is to have SymlinkIfOwnerMatch apply; I actually did try
putting -FollowSymLinks in a top level <Directory /> config, but the SSI
include *still* followed the symlink.
My question is whether or not it is expected that SSI includes will ignore
the Apache symbolic link following configuration, or if it is a bug? (Or
if I'm just doing something stupid, which is always a possibility)...
Without commenting on the last part of the question, you might want to
make sure that you are not getting bitten by this, as many people
(including me) have been :
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/sections.html
(read the very last paragraph carefully)
In other words, check if by any chance you do not have some <Location>
section negating all your configuration snippets for that <Directory>.
Example :
DocumentRoot /var/www/mydocs
<Directory /var/www/mydocs/mydir>
some options here
</Directory>
... many lines in-between ...
<Location /mydir>
other options here
</Location>
would make the options in <Location /mydir> prevail over the ones in the
<Directory> section.
It can be more insidious..
