I put this one up yesterday evening, but forgot to announce it. It's
a bugfix, up on hyperreal is patch10.log-noaccess; the bug it corrects
is that access denial due to symlink checks or an invalid client
address wasn't getting noted in the error log. The patch itself
follows:

if ((res = check_symlinks (this_dir, allowed_here)))
+ {
+ log_reason("Symbolic link not allowed", this_dir, r);
return res;

/* Begin *this* level by looking for matching <Directory> sections from
* access.conf.

if ((res = check_symlinks (r->filename, allow_options(r))))
+ {
+ log_reason("Symbolic link not allowed", r->filename, r);
return res;
+ }

return OK; /* Can only "fail" if access denied
* by the symlink goop.
