Comment-Added:
It really isn't a bug in mod_rewrite because at least
under Solaris and FreeBSD I get the correct rewrite.log entries:

192.76.162.40 - - [24/Feb/1998:16:32:03 +0100] [en1.engelschall.com/sid#62034][rid#88034/initial] (3) applying pattern '^/ccccccc/iiiiiiiii/(.*\.[mM][aA][pP])$' to uri '/ccccccc/iiiiiiiii/test.map'
192.76.162.40 - - [24/Feb/1998:16:32:03 +0100] [en1.engelschall.com/sid#62034][rid#88034/initial] (2) rewrite /ccccccc/iiiiiiiii/test.map -> /x

As Dean said there is a good chance that
something under Digital Unix is broken, perhaps
their regex library. But we need some more feedback
from the user. Especially if WANTHSREGEX=yes is set.
