 This is probably too late too help you guys, but I found that simply
 placing the Auth code before the WP section in the .htaccess file worked
 just fine. Also, it helps not to add the order or allow/deny bits, as
 those just seem to confuse Apache on DH. The auth bit works just fine
 without those statements.

 All real subdirectories and password protected subdirectories, and even
 redirected password protected subdirectories showed up fine. All non-
 existent pages pointed to the WP 404 page. All permalinks survived.

 Edit: Also, changing the Permalinks from within WP doesn't affect the Auth
 code, which is outside of the area that WP modifies.
