Thanks. Somehow I missed the reference to PHP requirements in Scott's
message.

IIRC the notice I got from DH said they've upgraded to PHP 5.3. I don't
spend enough time with PHP to know what differences may affect shared
hosting.
Here's the link they provided for PHP assistance in their upgrade notice
from Nov 5:

Is it necessary to declare special handling for PHP when declaring
special handling for other file types? I'd thought PHP support was a
given on DH's shared hosting accounts, handled in Apache2.config at the
server level.
To double-check what I had originally understood from Scott's post
(looking at LC alone without PHP), I put a fresh install of LC Server v7
on a new DH host and after setting permissions it was up and running
with just two lines in .htaccess, the AddHandler and the Action defining
that handler.
Given the prevalence of PHP, I doubt DH's requirements for the upgrade
involve much work - they'd be overloaded with support requests if they
didn't give some good thought to backward compatibility with people's
existing configs.
Normally there's no conflict between any combination of CGIs mentioned
in .htaccess as long as they don't mix file extensions.
So I'll bet that once we pin this down, we'll have an "a ha!" moment in
which the solution is simpler than what it may seem right now.
