They're both Trans handlers in the normal case. So if mod_alias runs first
and matches it will return OK and mod_rewrite won't see the request.
So it shouldn't be a surprise. :)
I think the advice to give is to not mix them. mod_rewrite does everything
mod_alias does - (except for ScriptAlias which is not really relevant on
this list anyway) - so if you need mod_rewrite for a set of urls, use it
exclusively.
