'Upgrading Apache 2.4 suddenly breaks because of my .htaccess Order directive

After upgrading my version of Apache 2.4, my web application (FlightPath) suddenly broke, displaying a 500 Internal Error.

I eventually tracked it down to this statement in my .htaccess:

Order allow,deny

Turns out, the "Order" directive is deprecated in Apache 2.4, and with this latest update on my server it apparently started just dying with the dreaded 500 Internal Error.
