I figured out what the problem was: my RHS of my rewrite rules had a
slash in the beginning, which was triggering an infinite loop (until
apache steps in, using maxredirects). I took out the beginning slash
and all was well.

The rules that are now working, fwiw, are:

RewriteRule ^(collab.*)$ - [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^(.*\.(php|htm|html))$ server.php?q=$1 [NC,L]
RewriteRule ^([^\.]*)$ server.php?q=$1 [L]


Thanks for your help.
