In your case, you should rename the directory containing all ewiki files
into "ewiki" again, so you can make "/wiki/" a fully virtual one. The
settings for mod_rewrite (put in DOC_ROOTs .htaccess) would then look
like:

   RewriteEngine On
   RewriteRule  ^wiki/(.+)$  ewiki/index.php?id=$1  [QSA,L]
   RewriteRule  ^wiki$       wiki/                  [R]

And in index.php you'd could go with following:

   define("EWIKI_SCRIPT", "/wiki/");
   define("EWIKI_SCRIPT_URL", "http://blog.openartifact.org/wiki/";);
   define("EWIKI_SCRIPT_BINARY", "/ewiki/index.php?binary=");

Note the difference between _SCRIPT and _SCRIPT_BINARY (if you need it
at all?!).

If you make the /wiki/ directory fully virtual, you won't run browsers
into problems with accessing files from /ewiki/fragments/ - therefore
you don't need a RewriteCond here.

Btw, everybody else could get "less ugly" URLs by defining EWIKI_SCRIPT
to just "?" - the id= has always been optional.
