 Replying to [comment:5 nacin]:
 > Some servers may omit the query string from REQUEST_URI, but WordPress
 goes through and corrects numerous {{{$_SERVER}}} variables including this
 one to ensure that it includes the query string, as it is supposed to (see
 wp_fix_server_vars() in wp-includes/load.php in 3.0, or a big chunk of
 code near the top of wp-settings.php in 2.9).

 I only know that I host sites on two different servers (shard hosting) and
 both show the same symptoms, and that the problem effects about 50% of the
 plugins I use.

 There might actually be a problem with the wp_fix_server_vars() as I
 checked $_SERVERREQUEST_URI outside of wordpress and it worked fine.

 In any case, I'm able to solve this specifically for my needs, I just
 think it might actually be a bug in the way wordpress handles these vars.
