Ahem. How many times has g1 told you not to mix mod_alias (Redirect by that name) and mod_rewrite? You didn't listen, did you? Since they are different mods, it cannot possibly make any difference what order they're in. Each mod is handled as a unit, and the order of module execution is out of your control.

Change the RedirectMatch (mod_alias) to a RewriteRule and all should be copacetic.
