#2448 HTTP Auth module does not work with CGI PHP on Apache 2.2

[jpa]

HTTP Auth module uses an URL Rewrite workaround to support CGI-based PHP: http://codex.gallery2.org/Gallery2:Modules:httpauth#Authorization_Header

However, in Apache 2.2, the rewrite rule causes PHP not to work when authorized: https://issues.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=40781

As mentioned in the Apache bug, adding NS flag to the rewrite rule fixes the issue. Suggested patch:
