I've found an easier way to rewrite WordPress URLs than attempt to recreate all of the crazy combinations.
url.rewrite-once = ( "^([^.]+)$" => "index.php$1" )
It basically rewrites anything that doesn't have a full-stop in it. So if you use it, make sure all your images and stylesheets have file extensions.
Good, but if you are using virtual hosts for some reason the pretty urls work fine for normal webpages, but when you try to get the default page by just typing in the URL it doesn’t work.
Works
http://www.blah.com/about – this will map to http://www.blah.com/about.php
Doesn’t Work
http://www.blah.com – doesn’t find the default index.html page anymore
This is using evhost in lighttpd.

Yeah. It won’t work for Lighttpd-handled URLs that don’t have a full-stop in them. This was just a hack to solve my problem without writing all the different options.
You could try this though.
