Re: Possible serious bug in mod_fastcgi-2.4.6-AP22.dll

The lack of support for external servers, in practice, seems to be a
huge hole in the feature set. A large benefit of FCGI is in being able
to easily connect custom non-web applications to a webserver for eg.
providing data for existing web applications.

Zev, have you been able to trace through the server code and figure
out what is happening? I looked through fcgi_protocol_dequeue at
http://www.fastcgi.com/cvs/mod_fastcgi/fcgi_protocol.c and it looks
correct to me. Perhaps with more information a fix could still be
applied?
