 If i have no robots.txt in my wordpress install and visit the robots.txt
 file in the browser, nothing is generated and a 404 is returned. No plugin
 installed, no permalinks enabled.
 I've looked at the code and there doesn't seem to be any check for crawler
 user agent and i've got an old site in wordpress 3.5.1 which actually
 works.
 I was trying to test a function that adds my rules to robots.txt.
 To reproduce, simply try to visit the robots.txt file in your browser.
 If i force it in query.php by returning true from is_robots, also a notice
 appears.
