Since people are noticing and commenting on this, I'll give it a
mention.

Remove all of your rewrite rules.  Replace them with:

ErrorDocument 404 /index.php?error=404

If you're serving index.php out of a subdirectory, be sure to prefix
it:  /wordpress/index.php?error=404.

You can use is_404() within index.php to handle the case where the
requested URI could not be matched, or you can redirect to a separate
404 page.
