This was fixed in 1.2b10.
Another note I'd like to make:

This is better written as:
<Directory proxy:*>
order deny,allow
deny from all
allow from testing.machine.ip.address
</Directory>
Earlier Apache documentation and examples always included the
<Limit>..</Limit> sections. But it's better to not include them when
you're concerned about limiting everything. (Consider POST, PUT, etc.)
This applies to pretty much every case of <Limit> that I've seen in user
configs.
