Comment:

 This isn't a Bug, it's due to the way you're doing the rewriting,
 Unfortunately I'm not good enough at mod_rewrite to suggest an
 alternative.

 WordPress is interprating the request in 2 ways, It's processing the GET
 variables (from your rewrite rule) and also from the REQUEST_URI (ie.
 WordPress's internal url rewriting functionality)

 The actual request WordPress see's is:
 {{{
 http://mydomain.com/tax1A-at-tax2A,tax2B/?tax1=tax1A&tax2=tax2A,tax2B
 }}}

 Since your permalink rules are most likely {{{%category%/%postname%/}}} or
 similar,  WordPress is interpreting the path in the URL as a category.
 This isn't a bug, it's just the way that the rewrite rules in WordPress
 work.. They don't work well with mod_rewrite rules that also hit
 WordPress.

 The best way to achieve what you want, would be to use WordPress's
 internal url rewriting, WP_Rewrite instead.
