I don't think you can _count_ on it being anything. It _might_ be
/usr/local/apache/htdocs.  Might also be whatever the install directory was
specified as when apache was built.

But why wouldn't it be set?  There's a few things in the httpd.conf file
that really should be set, and that's one of them.
