The default Apache configuration is to restrict access to the entire
filesystem and only allow access to the contents of your DocumentRoot.
So normally you would have deny rules on <Directory /> and allow rules for
<Directory /Library/Websites> or where ever your DocumentRoot is configured.
but as /cgi-bin/WebObjects/YourApp.woa is not located under your
DocumentRoot or for that matter in your /cgi-bin folder either, the default
deny rules kick in and return a 403 access forbidden error.
You might do better to use a "Location /cgi-bin/WebObjects/YourApp.woa> and
put your allow rules inside that for a more secure setup.

Why is that, actually?
I also fell for this, the first time I setup mod_webobjects.
