>Description:
<!--#exec cmd="perl metatest.cgi keywords '--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---'" -->
produces:
meta name="keywords" content="--- � - � - � - � ---"
instaed of:
meta name="keywords" content="--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---"

only submitted arguments are translated, other cgi "print" work fine.
>How-To-Repeat:
see:
http://reinisch.at/tttt/xxx.shtml


how it is executed:
---------------
<!--#exec cmd="perl metatest.cgi keywords '--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---'" -->
---EOD---------

wrong output via exec cmd (execution at command-line works fine):
---------------
 meta name="keywords" content="--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---,--- � - � - � - � ---" 
---EOD---------

how it should look like:
---------------
 meta name="keywords" content="--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---,--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---" 
---EOD---------

this is metatest.cgi: 
---------------
#!/usr/bin/perl
$keywords_glob='--- &#223; - &#228; - &#246; - &#252; ---,';
print " meta name=\"".@ARGV[0]."\" content=\"".${@ARGV[0].'_glob'}.@ARGV[1]."\" ";
---EOD---------
