We cannot get thumbnails rendered for media file names

We found a web discussion of the problem, but without an solution. We
are using an Apache’s rewrite to process thumbs upon usage (rather
than at page saving time). Is this the culprit? The WMF/Commons have
solved it, but we cannot find a copy of the Apache rewrite WMF is
using (and the problem may be elsewhere anyways).
Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it?

Yes, + in filenames is problmetic.
How are you doing the rewriting to thumb.php?
