I'm not sure if any server does that. It doesn't seem to be
a part of FastCGI protocol - correct me if I'm wrong. It is
really desirable though.

According to the protocol, a connection can be multiplexed but
the FastCGI server side code is not using that feature. Then
multiplexing sounds more like http pipe-lining, rather than
http keep-alive.

I use lighttpd. It builds with cygwin. Jan (the developer) said there
was a Windows build but I was not able to build it. But so far the
cygwin version works just fine.
