This is a shot in the dark but, does this work?

==
import os
os.environ['REMOTE_USER'] = os.environ['HTTP_REMOTE_USER']

from wsgiref.simple_server import make_server

# obtain the WSGI request dispatcher
from roundup.cgi.wsgi_handler import RequestDispatcher
tracker_home = 'demo'
app = RequestDispatcher(tracker_home)

httpd = make_server('', 8917, app)
httpd.serve_forever()
==

basically modify the environment array to map HTTP_REMOTE_USER to
REMOTE_USER before calling the RequestDispatcher.
