Django 1.5 static files strangeness

I'm getting odd static files 404 behaviour switching to DEBUG = False on
my Windows XP dev machine.

My staging server is Linux running under Apache and the same code and
the same version of Django and that is running fine with DEBUG = FALSE

See the 200 versus 404 info below ...

The workaround is obviously to use DEBUG = True on the dev machine

Might be a bug
