AFAICS rahuls patch is all that is needed.  It updates r->finfo that Content-
Length, Last-Modified, and ETag headers will be consistent with the content. 
Even if the file is replaced concurrently, the request will either return the 
old file or the new file.

For me this atomicity is a vital property which for the last ten years I took 
for granted to be implemented in httpd.  Sure, if the file is truncated, then 
all bets are off.  But if the content provider goes to the trouble to use an 
atomic replace, then httpd should reflect that to the http client.

I am astonished that this seems to be a wellknown long-term bug rather than a 
regression.
