This is how Apache behaves. It doesn't set QUERY_STRING when
page is not found as it's redirected.

You can test this with putting phpinfo() into your 404 script. Search
for "REDIRECT_QUERY_STRING" in the "Apache Environment" section..

(it's also in _SERVER var)

$_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'] is empty in our 404-handling script, which is
displayed when the user's URL is not found. The query string appears
correctly in REQUEST_URI, so the data is there, it's just not getting
into the QUERY_STRING var.

Here are some dumps of the $_SERVER array, for an existing script, and
a bad URL that displays the 404 script:
