Yeah, that RewriteRule has been commented out during a BlueOnyx update a few 
days ago. As you pointed out, it affects the "web alias redirects" and as long 
as it is commented out, the switch "web alias redirects" in the GUI has no 
function.

This was done as a short term fix for some SSL problems we had on 5107R and 
5108R, where some sites with SSL enabled started and endless redirect loop.

This is a problem between that RewriteRule and 
/etc/httpd/conf.d/ssl_perl.conf, which does a dynamic change of the sites 
Apache config when SSL is enabled.

I have the problem narrowed down to a faulty regular expression in 
ssl_perl.conf and within the next few days I'll release some updates which 
will hopefully solve both issues.
