apache 1.3 & cgi

[Rainer Hötte <Ra...@gmx.de>]

I found incompatibilities between cgi and mod-tcl and some stability 
problems with mod_tcl (sometimes "core-dump"), so i decided (sorry) for 
fcgi.
Also i found mod-tcl a little bit low level in comparison to cgi/fcgi.
Fcgi runs with a1.3 and a2, mod-tcl only with a2.

 From performance fcgi is fast and from usage simple.
Unfortunatly i could not manage to run fcgi out of the box, so i created 
my own (very simple) tcl-fcgi shared lib. But that is simple (you need 
to export only 1 or 2 calls) and you can keep the rest of your software 
nearly identical.
I develop with cgi and then test/deploy with fcgi. Only problem with 
fcgi is "set ::env(hello) world", which kills your fcgi.
