Pretty much this :

**

<VirtualHost *:80>
        ServerName here

        DocumentRoot /blah
</VirtualHost>

<Directory /blah>
        Redirect /images/ http://somewhere.else/images/
</Directory>

**

If I add "Options -FollowSymLinks" in the <Directory/>, the redirection will
fail with the error message no matter what "images" is pointing to.
If symlinks are allowed it only fails when it is broken, even a link towards an
unauthorised file won't be a problem (though in this case mod_mime_magic
complains it "can't read /.../file").

I understand how the order can be important in some cases, but I don't get why
apache even tries to access the real "images" in the first place.
