Description
When setting up permalinks in admin, WP does not escape "." in .htaccess.
Example:
Permalink
/%category%/%post_title%.%post_id%
All occurrences of "." in the .htaccess mod-rewrite regular expression must be escaped ("\.") or else mod-rewrite treats them as port of the expression. This generates a 404 error.

Not an issue for WP 1.6, as the .htaccess is hardcoded, and all permalink processing is done inside WP (yay!)
