MultiViews on PHP files not working

[Jan Engelhardt <jengelh@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,


.php files are skipped when mod_negotiation looks for files.
Nailed it down to around the

    while (apr_dir_read(&dirent, APR_FINFO_DIRENT, dirp) == APR_SUCCESS) {

loop in mod_negotation.c:read_types_multi().
Going to http://foo.bar/dead/ gives the following after adding printfs:
(/dead.php symlink to /dead2/index.php so that /dead does not exist, as per
MultiViews requirements)

	Filename: dead2
	Filename: dead.php
	sub_req->handler=0x55555592ead8 sub_req->content_type=(nil)
	exception_list=(nil)

and so it is 'obvious' why the .php files are skipped, because 
exception_list == NULL and

        exception_list =
            (apr_array_header_t *)apr_table_get(sub_req->notes,
                                                "ap-mime-exceptions-list");

        fprintf(logfp, "exception_list=%p\n", exception_list);
        if (!exception_list) {
            ap_destroy_sub_req(sub_req);
            continue;
        }

triggered. But why is the content_type/exception_list NULL I wonder?
PHP files on their own work without a hitch.
