  *) Modfied mod_mime to prevent mod_negotation from serving a multiview
     of a 'handler' or 'filter', so that any filename extension that does
     not contribute to the negotiated metadata can't be served without
     an explicit request.  E.g., if the .Z extension is associated with
     an unzip filter, the user request somefile.Z.html, mod_negotiation
     won't serve it.  It can serve somefile.Z.html when somefile.Z is
     requested, since the .Z extension is explictly requested, if the
     .html extension is associated with ContentType text/html.

    See changes for a complete description.  Because (in the example) the
    .Z extension doesn't affect negotiated behavior, the files index.html
    and index.Z.html couldn't be distinguished, and the user would get an
    error 406 NOT ACCEPTABLE, which is the _wrong_ answer.
