The redirection doesn't seem to work for post requests. In that case
the request uri looks like this: /foo/POST?chk=chk1&chk=chk2&txt=asdf

Is there a workaround for that, too?

Btw, I'm using the SCRIPT_NAME fix and I don't think this is my own
apache instance since the host provider runs this service in his spare
time with one physical server.
