Brent and I worked on this offline and found a winning combination. It
has been added to WordPress for the benefit of all.

http://trac.wordpress.org/changeset/7558

These new rules have the added benefit of not breaking your server if
you happen to turn off mod_security. Also, they allow mod_security to
work on all files other than the one the Flash uploader uses.

If you added anything to your .htaccess, you should remove it before
the next time you upgrade WordPress and see if the core patch works
for you.

Thanks to all who helped. Sorry to those who haven't yet been helped.

Cheers,
Andy
