To me this sounds like you are way off on the wrong track. I’ve never heard of anything like this before. I use a static front page for WordPress and have never had this problem.

Did you install bbpress and wordpress into separate folders? Is bbPress in a subfolder of WordPress?

Did you create an .htaccess for bbPress and are you using permalinks?

Is this relevant at all?

Not trying to distract you from the work you’re doing, but I’ve never heard of anyone going off in that direction before for a problem like this.
