The location keyword is deprecated.
It was used to specify the base location for the application.
You should put a location statement in the base_controller block to achieve this behavior.
Note that if you use a location,
you probably need an app_rootp config parameter in the app level config block.
But,
don't expect to use either of those with a stand alone server.
It doesn't play well with non-default paths.

To see an example, build:
bigtop -c example.bigtop all
Change to the Kids directory and look for example in these files:
docs/kids.bigtop lib/GENKids.pm lib/Kids.pm lib/Kids/Child.pm
Notice that this affects the CGI script, the stand alone server, and the httpd.conf. The stand alone server probably won't work correctly with a non-default location (even if you put the location statement in the base_controller block).
