I am so foolishly trusting. It turns out migrating feed subscribers from wordpress defaults over to feedburner wasn’t just a case of installing the feedburner wordpress plugin. That is only half the job, there is a bug in the classes.php (found in wp-includes). Right at the bottom you will see:
function handle_404()
Remove the lines that read:
elseif( is_404() != true ) {
status_header( 200 );
}
This outputs headers when it doesn’t need to, fouling up the redirect!
Hopefully my feeds should be playing nice now …
