Yes.  I'll install it under mod_perl when it's working and debugged on
the new server.

From a pipe where?  In my CGI script?

I actually managed to fix this by stealing a bunch of code from
Apache::Dynagzip, which basically re-implements the CGI handler in
Perl.  It seems kind of hackish, but it works!  At least well enough
to get me through this testing.

Thanks!
