Comment(by nacin):

 I've implemented some logic in network.php that goes like this:

 1. Check for mod_rewrite using apache_mod_loaded(). If true, then
 mod_rewrite definitely exists and we continue.

 2. Otherwise, check for mod_rewrite using got_mod_rewrite(). If true, then
 we're running Apache and can assume mod_rewrite. If that's the case, we
 still display a notice.

 3. Otherwise, we must assume that mod_rewrite does not exist, and we
 display a warning.
