I also see this same problem on my online test site and my main site 
(r7502) where the new "sample" permalink suggestion also has "index.php" 
tacked onto it and I'm still using the 2.3.x .htaccess file (never 
chnaged). I know my host supports mod rewrite and I've always used it. 
If this said "index.html" instead of "index.php" I'd believe it but 
"index.php" tells Wordpress to use themes. This appears to be a problem, 
yes?
