Strange, so it must be a server setting somewhere. It's the same server, only thing we changed was the PHP version and it worked on PHP 5.3 but not 5.4.
As far as I can tell mod_rewrite is enabled. Do you know what other settings need to be on?
Thanks

The catalog is in the root of our public_html directory. My RewriteBase path is: RewriteBase / Anything else breaks it. Again, it works file like this if PHP version is 5.3 Arigato gozaimashita

Upon re-reading PHP.net makes the distinction that "call-time pass-by-reference" is deprecated. So apparently a parameter received by reference by a function is still ok.
