Any guidance? On some pages the RSS feeds work, but on others they don't.

Could this be a problem with parsing bbcode?

I worked it out, it was a sh404sef configuration problem. If anyone else needs help on the topic, I'll provide some guidance.

...but after setting the sef so it does not change the feeds, the feeds no longer have titles, which means it is only possible to subscribe to one of the feeds, after which an error message appears saying the feed already exists. The same problem is reported for v3. here:

I found the problem, it is in commehnt.php:
function createFeed(){
 require_once(JPATH_SITE."/includes/feedcreator.class.php");
$contentid = JOSC_utils::decodeData('contentid');
$component = ''; /* com_content TODO: adapt to others...  */
$database = JFactory::getDBO();
$database->setQuery("SELECT * FROM jos_content WHERE id='$contentid'");
$content = null;
$database->loadObject($content);
 $rss = new UniversalFeedCreator();
$rss->useCached();

In Joomla 1.5, $database->loadObject($content) needs to be:
$content=$database->loadObject();

There's one more tiny thing with the 4.0 code for RSS -- the JROUTE statement:
$rss_item->link = 
 JRoute::_("index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=$contentid#JOSC" . $item['id']);

Is failing because if there are no comments yet, there is no itemid, so the #JOSC has no anchor. So that leads to a 404 and it's not possible to subscribe to the feed until a comment exists in it. Changing it to:
index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=$contentid#" . $item['id']);
works because then the trailing hashmark defaults to the top of the file, and the browser can still open the link.

There is another problem but it's a Joomla problem. Joomla sef thinks an 'rss' suffix is a directory and appends a slash to it. Browsers are intelligent enough to do a rediirect, but it causes an HTTP -1 error on link checkers and fills the error log with hundreds of irritating entries.
