Certainly some php_value directives can be over-ridden in .htaccess,
regardless of whether they were set globally in httpd.conf or in a
VirtualHost or Directory block.
Equally certainly, some cannot be over-ridden.
I am almost 100% certain that php_value makes no distinction between
*where* in httpd.conf the setting comes from. I daresay php_value in
..htaccess can't even tell the difference from one part of httpd.conf to
the other.
http://php.net/ has a page devoted to describing exactly which php_value
settings can be over-ridden where. Check that.
It's also possible that once auto_prepend_file is set, it's set, and
that's it -- Regardless of where it is set, you're stuck with it at that
value.
So it's more of a 'define' for a constant that some kind of variable you
can change on a whim. Part of that could easily be to provide web host
administrators with a way to guarantee that some PHP code of theirs gets
run no matter what their clients may try to do... Which I could see might
be handy for some hosts, and they'd not want it over-ridden. These last
two paragraphs are pure speculation on my part. But it could be true, and
it wouldn't really fit into that nifty chart in the manual.
