>Description:
While this is not a bug, per se, I think it is still woth mentioning.  We 
upgraded our old Apache 1.2 server to 1.3.2 
several months ago.  It was a big problem for us that the default paths had 
changed.  These paths, of course
can be changed in the configuration files, but we wanted to try to keep up with 
the changes.  After some messing
around, we finally got all of the paths changed.  Life was happy.  I upgraded 
to 1.3.3 when it was release.  More
happiness.  I saw that 1.3.4 was released and I was eccstatic!  Little did I 
know that the default paths had changed
AGAIN!  Now, in order to stay with the default paths, I must go through and 
change all sorts of paths
in various CGI's, log analyzers, etc.
>How-To-Repeat:
Upgrade from Apache 1.2 to 1.3.3 then to 1.3.4
>Fix:
The old paths or the new, I don't care, but the constant changing is really an 
issue for some 
of us anal-retentive administrators who don't want to stray from the norm.  Ad 
my
dear grandfather says "S**t or get off the pot" meaning, pick one or pick the 
other, just pick!
