Using the B flag, non-alphanumeric characters in backreferences will be escaped. For example, consider the rule:

 RewriteRule RewriteRule ^(.*)$   index.php?show=$1

This will map /C++ to index.php?show=C++. +

This will map /C++ to index.php?show=/C++. But it will also map /C%2b%2b to - index.php?show=C++, because the %2b + index.php?show=/C++, because the %2b has been unescaped. With the B flag, it will instead map to - index.php?show=>/C%2b%2b.

+ index.php?show=/C%2b%2b.

This escaping is particularly necessary in a proxy situation, when the backend may break if presented with an unescaped URL.
