Maybe that web.i link was referring to an SVN id: 
http://svn.osgeo.org/mapserver/trunk@5497  (and he forgot a digit from 
5497 and it became 579 : see top of 
https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/commit/5e805ddea

That's all I can give you from my sleuthing powers ha.  Hope my messages 
light up someone else's lightbulb.
