[Ur] URL-decoding in -protocol fastcgi vs. -protocol http

Adam,

I tried using -protocol fastcgi today instead of -protocol http.

I got things running on Debian Lenny with lighttpd-1.4.19-5 with a
configuration file very similar to the one you posted (though adapted
to serve some static resources and to redirect /app.js to my fcgi
app.)

Unfortunately, I've had to revert to the plain urweb http server
because lighttpd is removing one layer of URL-decoding url decoding
before passing requests on to my urweb executable. (My understanding
is that this extra url-decoding is a long-standing Apache misfeature.)

Regards,

Michael
