Wow don't I feel silly, that was it! Thanks Joshua.

Now $1 looks to me like a regex back reference, but I'm not sure if it's being stripped by mod_rewrite or a security feature of apache itself. I checked the RFC and '$' seems to be a safe character in HTTP. The really odd thing is that I am getting the same results in my access log even if RewriteEngine is turned off, which leads me to suspect that the problem may be with the core server and not mod_rewrite. Ideally I would just change the URL format to something not using a $, but it's a legacy url from the app that used to run on my domain, and I would like to redirect these urls to my legacy server. Any ideas?Your access_log entries show the URL when it is first received from the client, before any processing. These entries don't show any $1. This implies to me that your client is not sending the $1. If you are trying to access these urls using a shell-client, the shell might be grabbing the $1 before it even gets to the client.
