Will spiders allow this and actually index it if I edit the .htaccess to goto cmps_index.php instead of index.php?

Spiders will indeed follow this.

We have setup a ton of .htaccess rewrites and Google repsects them very much so.

Just don't try redirects or cloaking methods or you will surely be banned.

On another not "Cloaking" gets you banned because you get caught...

But its only cloaking if you get aught and do not know what you are doing right? Tough call.
