I've seen this before but don't remember the cause. Some things you can
try:

Wipe and reinstall frontpage extensions for the site
Perform an "upgrade" and/or "check and fix"
Upgrade to FP4 (probably a smart move anyway, if you have to live with
that crap)

No guarantee that any of them will work. FP tends to sometimes think files
and directories are interchangeable objects. I'm pretty sure I fixed it
with one of the above but then my memory needs upgrading, so...

Im not sure why this worked... (thats a very common theme of all things 
Microsoft, but im sure you know that already though. :) ) But I blew away 
the apache and frontpage installation. Reinstalled. Now it works. I started 
with a clean install, except there was an apache.sh file in 
/usr/local/etc/rc.d, which I seriously doubt had anything to do with it...
