Hi Neil,

Thank you for the update to this.  I'm looking forward to using Apache 2 and
mod_scgi together! :)

There are two things that I'm having trouble with though.  I had originally
configured my apache server to serve static files using the following
configurations in httpd.conf:

    SCGISERVER localhost:4000
    SCGIHandler On


    SetHandler None


    SetHandler None

This was working with 1.2.a1, but now when I try to access the static
content, I get an error as follows:
The requested link does not exist on this site. If you arrived here by
following a link from an external page, please inform that page's
maintainer.
Page not found: /css/global.css:  ''  has
no _q_exports list

I tried changing my httpd.conf to use the "SCGIHandler On/Off" config as
mentioned in the scgi-1.2a2/apache2/README:

    SCGIHandler Off


    SCGIHandler Off


But with the same result.  It looks like SCGI is still trying to process
this file, even with those settings.  Strange...

The second thing is that it looks like the "POST" method to forms still
doesn't work.  Is this still a known issue?

If anyone else migrates from 1.2a1 to 1.2a2, the scgi server deletes the
pidfile (as stated in the CHANGES file), so don't forget to remove any code
that my try to do that in the init script.

Thanks in advance!

-Charles.
