This is IMHO a bugfix for a path_info handling bug, for which there
was an ugly workaround of specifying base URL ($my_url and $my_uri)
explicitly in gitweb configuration (GITWEB_CONFIG).

Therefore I think that this patch should have been sent outside of
the rest of "new path_info features" series, as a separate single
patch, and now that it is there it really should be applied, perhaps
even to the 'maint' branch.

Perhaps some comment here?

Just in case.

I was wondering if $path_info should be global variable, but then
I checked that $path_info is local to evaluate_path_info() subroutine.
So it is good as it is now, but with quoting regular expression
metacharacters.
