I can also confirm this mod_access bug:

http://www.lighttpd.net/assets/2007/7/24/lighttpd_sa2007_08.txt

bug is present in lighttpd-1.4.13-9ubuntu4 and fixed in
lighttpd-1.4.13-9ubuntu4.1 (version created after applying debdiff).

To test I edited this line in /etc/lighttpd/lighttpd.conf:

  url.access-deny            = ( "~", ".inc", ".txt" )


I created a simple test.txt file in /var/www/ and could not access it using 
either http://hostname/test.txt or http://hostname/test.txt/.

I just wanted to comment on my testing methods in case anyone's
interested.
