I added following to the bottom of the development apache config and
it's working for me.  Please let us know if that works for you.  The
rules we want here are:

RewriteEngine on
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} e?is.n=([^=]*)
RewriteRule ^/openurl$ /opac/extras/opensearch/1.1/-/marcxml/keyword/%1 [NE,PT]

This is specifically for eissn, issn and isbn, but could be expanded
to work with any KEV, as well as OpenURL 1.0.
