404 Mishandling

Both gallery2 and wordpress2 have shotty support of 404s when dealing with permalinks via apache2 rewrites and aliases. This becomes a big deal when you want spiders to index your site and they disappear as soon as they realize you don’t support 404s (b/c you appear to be a spider trap). I’ve read numerous posts on the topic regarding WordPress and they say they’ve fixed it in the latest version which I’m running. Perhaps I’ve misconfigured things, but through careful tracing of execution I’m skeptical. As a result, I’ve created a plugin that I call “Fix 404″ to deal with the WP issues. Next, I need to figure out what the problem is with G2.
