httpd: prevent access to config file and authenticated URLs
Filesystems on Microsoft Windows are usually case-insensitive. This allows clients to circumvent security by requesting URLs with changes in case that aren't anticipated by the server: http://example.com/Httpd.conf vs http://example.com/httpd.conf http://example.com/SeCuReDir vs http://example.com/SecureDir Use case-insensitive comparisons to avoid this.
