If you say so. In that case it must be true that AllowOverride default has
changed. However, in my case a .htaccess file exists in the directory, but
AllowOverride was none, and all of the files in that directory were accessible
by everyone. That is simply wrong behaviour. It should work the same as if the
.htaccess file is unreadable but there-- ie permission denied, not allowed. 

I do not have my old httpd.conf files so do not know if the default has changed,
but it certainly used to be the case that the .htaccess files controlled the
access to teh directory, and I certainly never recall altering the AllowOverride
parameter. But the way it works now is just wrong. The default should not be
universal access even in the presence of an .htaccess file. 
Security should be conservative, not liberal.
