	Can you provide some additional detail about what you're doing?

	As far as I understand it, with "AcceptPathInfo Off" in efffect, the 
"/path/info" portion should cause a 404 error.  Of course, if this 
doesn't work on your system, one possible work-around would be to 
check that $r->path_info is empty and do the following if it isn't:

		$r->status(Apache2::Const::HTTP_NOT_FOUND);
		return Apache2::Const::HTTP_NOT_FOUND;
