I was wrong, setting 
EMBPERL_ALLOW (\.htm.?|\.epl$)
in the 'root' block (ie the file) also restricts my access to .txt
files.  Sorry about that.  This means it acts just like the apache index
control (a REQUEST to the http://host/eptest directory).  

My guess is that Embperl::Object completely controls the directory, and
EMBPERL_ALLOW restricts the module from using things *before* it can
determine what to do with a requested component (ie should it not process 
and just serve the .txt file).  The EMBPERL_URIMATCH then works in both of 
these cases once EMBPERL_ALLOW is removed, as it has been 'allowed' to view 
them, then chooses not to process them.

Sound right?
