splat.cgi is wrong -- it predates the addition of session management to
SPLAT!.  splat.cgi is also completely untested and unused -- I wrote a
grotesque custom hack to use SPLAT! on our web site.

This patch *might* fix things for you:

Then again, it might not.  Let me know if it works.

Oh yeah -- did I mention splat.cgi is untested and unused?  ;-)
