Unfortunately it's not compatible with Firefox 1.0.  But in any case, the
problem is the headers SCGI sends to Apache, not the headers Apache sends
to the browser.  Apache sends a normal Internal Server Error.

Yes.  On Linux, if that matters.

That immediately gives a "Premature end of script headers" in the Apache
log with no further explanation, and no messages in the Quixote access log
or error log.  I also tried FastCGI, and that works once but then hangs
for further requests.  But either of these also causes problems with my
URLs coz I'd need to use mod_rewrite to hide the /cgi-bin/app.cgi2scgi or
..fcg prefix, and then the redirects in my application put the /cgi-bin...
prefix back in because it's part of the script_name.  Sigh.  Would anyone
feel like modifying scgi.c to dump the headers and part of the body to a
file before passing them them to Apache?  It looks like my only other
alternative is to go back to the old way with Basic Authentication.
