Better mod_rewrite compatibility

[matt]

Many programs that use mod_rewrite (like WordPress) do the rules like this:

<IfModule mod_rewrite.c>
RewriteEngine On
RewriteBase /blog/
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f
RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d
RewriteRule . /blog/index.php
</IfModule>

This works, but only if I comment out the IfModule lines. Should support for this be added since you're effectively support everything mod_rewrite does?

Really? Our current release should ignore <IfModule ...> and </IfModule> directives. :-) Can you please double check? Thanks!

I'll double-check the ifmodule line.
