One more note:  I grepped all the apache config files for
'allowoverride': all of them are either 'All' or 'None' (in which case
garbage in .htaccess shouldn't result in a server error as it won't be
read at all).  So I'm sure .htaccess is read and no allowoverride
statement keeps me from using 'require', but it still doesn't work.  Any
ideas what else may be wrong?
