I think I found a bug in CGIHTTPServer.py.  (Does anyone care? :-)
I was trying to use it as the web server for uploading files.
Python CGI scripts (using the CGI module) that worked for other
servers (e.g., Netscape Enterprise server) hang when run from
CGIHTTPServer.  The problem is that the content type parameters,
in particular the boundary parameter, were not passed through to
the CGI scripts, thus making the MIME parsing code choke.

My simple-minded fix is:

	% diff CGIHTTPServer.py /usr/local/lib/python1.5/CGIHTTPServer.py
	137,140c136
	<           if self.headers.typeheader is None:
	<               env['CONTENT_TYPE'] = self.headers.type
	<           else:
	<               env['CONTENT_TYPE'] = self.headers.typeheader
	---
	>           env['CONTENT_TYPE'] = self.headers.type
