I guess that this was historic workaround for defining name-based 
virtual servers without defining ServerName/ServerAlias

<VirtualHost one.na.me>
# one.na.me served here
</VirtualHost>

<VirtualHost another.na.me>
# another.na.me
</VirtualHost>


Since this makes creating default-only name-based virtual hosts 
impossible, I've had to found the workaround mentioned in my previous 
mail.

I've been trying to solve this problem in the past, but I was only 
directed to the mentioned docs, I remember no explanation of why this 
is done.
