What I discovered today, apropos of this, is that on the Mac Pro at
work, the above failed. This was probably because I had done an
upgrade-install. But the reason was that there was no shortusername.conf
file in /private/etc/apache2/users/. When I added one, things worked as
documented for serving web pages from ~/Sites/.

At home, where I had done an install from scratch, I found these files
there for the two users.

I also added:

AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml

in:

/private/etc/apache2/other/php5.conf

Hmm. That sounds like a bug in the upgrade process.
