even if location inside location works, there no sense to do that, look:


location ~ \.php5$ {
        # regular php scripts
        fastcgi_pass ....
}

location /admin/ {
        auth_basic .....

        location ~ \.php5$ {
                fastcgi_pass ....
        }
}

request '/admin/index.php' will be handled in the regular scope (first location).
