 Turning on permalinks can render the whole blog into a 500 error situation
 under certain conditions.

 The issue has been experienced with a WP 3.0.5 setup, other versions seem
 affected as well.

 The creation of the .htaccess file does not reflect the systems umask
 setting which can result in creating a file that is not accessible by the
 server.

 That triggers the 500 then.

 Normally WP chmod's all files it creates. This is not done with the
 .htaccess file if it did not existed already.
