 the quick and dirty example at
 [http://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/WP_Rewrite] caused 404
 errors with my custom redirects. After a lot debugging I found in classes
 the function handle_404().
 There is a check when there are '''no posts''' it generates always 404:
 {{{
 if ( (0 == count($wp_query->posts)) && !is_404() && ...
 }}}
 As I had no posts I always had 404 in my pages. Just adding a dummy post
 solved my problem.

 My suggestion is to check if there are '''no posts''', ''to check also''
 if there are '''custom rules''' before generating 404.
