Hi George,
If your blog's URL was initially installed at http://example.com (and thus
entered into your options table for the home and siteurl entries), then
that's what Network would abide by when you have a subdirectory install
(that's VHOST != 'yes'). What page are you trying to access, and what URL
should it be taking you to? (What htaccess rule are you using?) Perhaps a
dump of the site and blogs tables could help. (You can send those to me
directly if you'd like, no need to clutter the list that much.)

If there's a bug, it'd be good to fix it. If it's just poor documentation or
unexpected functionality, it'd be good to improve that too.
