Igor, and the original author of the patch - you guys rock. Thank you. This actually solves a problem I tried months ago and had to write some custom script which sucked. Now, my users can use this without having to ask me to re-run the script.
Seems to work like a charm and it allows for infinitely deep recursion
/foo/ works /foo/a/b/c/ works
etc.
It does suck that nginx throws a 500 internal server error when no .htpasswd exists.
Could there be a way with this dynamic auth_basic_user_file thing that it just issues a 403 instead of a 500?
Probably 403 should be return in both cases (static and dynamic) if error is file not found.

Thank you so much for your time and effort in nginx! Hopefully this is pretty trivial.
There's patch by Kirill A. Korinskiy in Russian mailing list, that allows variables in auth_basic_user_file. I will look it and if it's good, will include it.
