This is a mis-config. The AddHandler is doing the SetOutputFilter for you,
so that your config is essentially:
<Files *.shtml>
SetOutputFilter INCLUDES
</Files>
<Files *.shtml>
SetOutputFilter INCLUDES
</Files>
This is a feature, because it allows you to process a file multiple times for the
same type of format. While 99% of people won't want to do this, adding
the overhead to check for this case when adding filters is not a good thing.
