Brilliant! Thanks Rob.
Here is the final that I went with (turns out I had to mind the
/includes/js directory or all my jQuery stuff STB, so that's why I call
each directory out like that):
develo...@myvm:/etc/apache2/sites-enabled$ tail -n20 000-default
# [dv] added 2010-04-01 to prevent serving include files and such
<LocationMatch "/UPDATES/">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</LocationMatch>
<FilesMatch "\.sql$">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
<LocationMatch "/includes/(classes|functions|gui|pear)/">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</LocationMatch>
<FilesMatch "\.(inc|class)\.php$">
Order allow,deny
Deny from all
</FilesMatch>
