I'm running into a bit of a problem when the client is IE7.  IE7 seems to
always be specifying the country code along with the language (e.g. always
de-DE and never just de).  IE 6 and Firefox don't always have the country
code (e.g. can be set for en or en-us).  If Apache is only configured to
recognize de and not de-DE, as it is OOTB, then it doesn't recognize the
language for requests specifying de-DE and provides another language.  It's
no problem to configure Apache to recognize de-DE, but then it will only
recognize requests for de-DE not de-AT or any other variation.  I would
think that for anything requesting de* Apache should be serving de, unless
otherwise configured.  Is there any way to configure Apache to serve
bar.html.de files for de* (e.g. de, de-DE, de-AT)?  Thanks in advance.

I'm guessing you are using the obsolete apache 1.3?

In 2.x, there is a default work-around for misconfigured clients.  See:
http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.2/content-negotiation.html#exceptions

Other than that, you can use type-map files to have more control over
negotiation results.
