[pkg-lighttpd] Bug#445459: lighttpd: mod_alias fails on localhost

[Steve Greenland]

Package: lighttpd
Version: 1.4.18-1
Severity: normal

(This may or may not be related to #386568).

I've got libhttpd running on all my interfaces, port 80 (the default).
Running a webserver on the same machine, accessing via an ethernet
interface (e.g. http://192.168.1.2/, or a name that resolves to such),
all aliases work. Accessing via localhost (or 127.0.0.1), they don't,
*except* the aliases defined in the Debian specific documentation block
(remoteip == 127.0.0.1). Reordering that block with the other aliases,
or removing it completely does not change what works (except that
removing that block makes the /doc/ alias fail, of course).

What's weird is that I'm 99% sure this all worked the last time I messed
with this, but that's definitely after I install 1.4.18-1, so I
don't know what's going on. It's definitely failing now...

Regards,
Steve
