You're assuming that HTTP_REFERER is being set when the browser follows
the redirect; a quick test will verify that doesn't happen (well, not
with Firefox, anyway). To avoid the loop, you can add the following line
after the 'RewriteEngine on':
RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !^$
This verifies that the referer header is there; if it's not, the
redirect will not be issued at all. Note that this may /not/ be the
ultimate effect you're going for. =)
