Comment(by matt):

 Rather than changing mod_rewrite rules, which people running on non-Apache
 platforms like nginx or IIS probably won't appreciate, we should special-
 case favicon.ico with an early exit someplace like wp-settings.php since
 this is a fairly common problem that causes performance issues, as azaozz
 suggested with his simple patch.
