Thanks for the suggestion, but that part seems to be working fine.

The %1 references my third RewriteCond above, as intended. As I have 
things configured, $1 references what comes after the HTTP_HOST (e.g. 
for http://whatever.mydomain.com/something.html the %1 references 
"whatever" and a $1 references "/something.html").

I think there's something in the way Interchange handles things that is 
interfering.
