New description:

 The httpd-userdir.conf file included with apache2 is designed for Unix
 systems having home directories in /home and web files in a public_html
 directory. Mac OS X, however, has home directories in /Users and web files
 in a Sites directory. The httpd-userdir.conf file needs to be patched by
 the darwinports apache2 portfile, especially since, even if I modify the
 file locally, it gets replaced the next time I upgrade apache2.

 It would be a good idea for someone to check how the apache 1 port behaves
 in this regard, and open a related bug report for that if necessary.
