PHP isn't doing this - your web server is.

If you check $_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] you should find PHP is receiving
a $_GET request. That's what Apache does when it redirects for a 404.
So, since PHP does not receive a $_POST request, there is no $_POST data
to process.

Your entire setup seems screwy to me. 404 should not be "expected",
whether you're using PHP or something else. It should be an error
condition.

What exactly are you trying to do? There must be a better way.
