I hate to say it, but I think the answer is that you no longer need to
un-comment that line:
config/core.php
Configure::write('App.baseUrl', env('SCRIPT_NAME'));
I think the latest version just works out of the box without mod_rewrite. I
didn't find it documented anywhere, and I would think it should state it
pretty clearly in the documentation very early on, but if you just use
example.com/?url=controller/action/params.../
instead of the pretty url's, it just works.
I guess all is not lost if this is indeed the case, because at least I
walked through the code 100 times and have a better understanding of the
class hierarchy and execution path. =/
Hope this helps the original poster.
