That looks like your problem. Is this directory in your document root? See below.

It's not a Dispatch issue, it's just the way PATH_INFO works (at least in apache).

http://www.modperl.com/book/chapters/ch9.html#The_Apache_URI_Class and look at
the path_info() method.

Apache creates the PATH_INFO after doing the URI => Filename translation. So if
you have a real directory it can shorten your PATH_INFO even if Apache doesn't
serve the file from that directory. Kinda sucky, but oh well. Try renaming
either the directory or the Location.
