  Fix spurious 404 caused by run_mirmon cron

Apache documents this for plain text maps:

> Cached lookups
>
> The looked-up keys are cached by httpd until the mtime (modified time) of the
> mapfile changes, or the httpd server is restarted. This ensures better
> performance on maps that are called by many requests.

As a corollary, apache rereads the files when their mtime changes. Due to us
previously using a shell redirect, apache would see the files empty or half-empty,
and then the redirect would fail with a 404 Not found.
