I could... but unless I put it in the Web-server-specific code, it would
need to be changed for each deployment; I like to develop in both environs,
because I don't need to reload under Apache but it's much faster under PyWX.
So I'd then have to import the Web server Quixote driver module, which doesn't
seem like a good solution!

Notice that SCRIPT_NAME will return to its solid old self is good 'nuff.

Thanks!
