Currently the .htaccess file contains a default expiration of 2 weeks and an exempt for text/html
However, depending on the Apache configuration this might have a negative effect on PHP script.
This results in a default expiration of 2 weeks for PHP files. While Drupal forces an expiration time of 0 in it's PHP script the setting in the .htaccess file will influence all PHP scripts that are below the Drupal tree.
This patch also adds an 2 week expiration exempt for application/x-httpd-php

All current Drupal versions (4.7.7, 5.2 and 6.x) are affected by this problem.

Trying to clear up some of the old clutter...

I'm by no means an expert but this seems wrong. As I understand it the application/x-httpd-php type is usually used in httpd.conf to add an handler for .php files. After parsing that .php file the webserver produces a file with mime-type text/html (unless it is explicitly changed in the php script)
Since the text/html extension is already covered in the current .htaccess file, the patch is redundant.

So unless I got this completely wrong I this issue shouldn't be fixed.
