'mod_rewrite_rules' works as it always has.  It was intended only for
those who needed to add funky mod_rewrite specific stuff to the rules
before write out to htaccess.  'generate_rewrite_rules'  is the proper
method of inserting rewrite rules that will work with all of our
supported rewrite methods, not just mod_rewrite.  The Feed Director
plugin offers a simple example of how to do this.
