Here's the rule:
RewriteEngine on
RewriteRule ^([^=?]+)?([^=]+)$ $1?param=$2
Any ideas?
The pattern shouldn't ever match what the URL is being rewritten to
because the pattern isn't supposed to contain any ='s whereas the
rewritten URL does...

When the rewritten URL hits this Rewrite Rule it only looks at whatever
you put in $1. The "param=$2" part is in the QUERY_STRING, not the URL
examined by the RewriteRule.

It can match a query string if you ask it to:
(untested)
RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^([^=]+)$
RewriteRule ^([^=?]+)$ $1?param=%1
That should do what you want.
