[pLog-svn] Htaccess update

[Jon Daley]

 	Please give an example when error.php would be used?  It isn't 
used on any blog that I know about.  There is only one blog that I used aa 
similar sort of rule to yours, although LT wasn't the only thing on that 
site, so my rule was more complicated.  But, for "normal" installations, 
those rules aren't needed - nor is error.php.  That is only for errors.
