Brion - thank you for your help! LiveHeaders helped me find the problem (the ServerName directive was not set correctly).

That indicates it returned a '301 Moved Permanently' response, which is indeed a redirect.
Confirm that Apache's ServerName directive is not incorrect (for instance, "localhost"), which would send you to the wrong location when making redirects.
You can ease debugging of these kinds of problems by installing the Live HTTP Headers extension in Mozilla Firefox, with which it's fairly easy to see the actual headers returned. (http://livehttpheaders.mozdev.org/)
