mod_python.c
<P>
Instructs mod_python to name subinterpreters using the directory in
which the Python*Handler directive currently in effect was
encountered.
<P>
For example, assume there is a
<span class="file">/directory/subdirectory</span>. <span class="file">/directory</span> has an .htaccess
file with a PythonHandler directive. <span class="file">/directory/subdirectory</span>
has another <span class="file">.htaccess</span> file with another PythonHandler. By
default, scripts in <span class="file">/directory</span> and
<span class="file">/directory/subdirectory</span> would execute in the same interpreter
assuming both directories are in the same virtual server. With
PythonInterpPerDirective, there would be two different interpreters,
one for each directive.
