Comment:

 It's actually a duplicate (well, it will be) of #11848, in that
 got_mod_rewrite() returns true as long as it's Apache and a filter doesn't
 have it return false.

 The same checks aren't used, and that's what I'm going to leave this
 ticket open for. We use apache_get_modules() in network.php, but in WP we
 have apache_mod_loaded() and got_mod_rewrite(). We should transition over
 to these.

 Since get_mod_rewrite() may return false positives (while
 apache_get_modules() by itself may return false negatives), it's more than
 just a simple function call switch, we'll have to massage the messages a
 bit.

 This has a decent amount to do with wpfs so I'll add this to my to-do
 list.
