Did you read this part:

  "The old access control idioms should be replaced by the new
   authentication mechanisms, although for compatibility with old
   configurations, the new module mod_access_compat is provided."

It would be easy to include mod_access_compat in the Fedora default
config for a release or two while the compat config is deprecated (and
noted in the release notes as such).
