I just had to look more closely. It seems to me that
seasidehosting is doing something extra in the image
or in its Apache config. The code in:

    WADispatcher>>handlerForRequest: aRequest relativeTo: base

works if the the basePath of WADispatcher is set
to '/'. But that is not what I want to do, since I still
want the '/seaside' there for redirect/rewrite.

The solution I have is to add:

     RedirectMatch ^$ http://foo.com/seaside/
     RedirectMatch ^/$ http://foo.com/seaside/

to my Apache config. Note that this is equivalent
to Nevin's image change:
     aRequest url = '/' ifTrue: [aRequest url: '/seaside/home'].
