Yes. In fact, there was no WP block at all in WP 1.5 in the site I  
ran into this on.

No, I rewrote it to /index.php?pagename=foo

Yes.

I think you may have glossed over the point I was trying to make.

WordPress looks at $_SERVER['PATH_INFO'] and $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']  
- neither of those seem to be properly updated to reflect a rewritten  
URL where $_GET variables do reflect the rewritten URL.

Of course, I ran into these hassles when I upgraded in early 2006:

so my recollection of all this is not particularly recent.
