hmm, that does seem pretty conclusive. which version of comments.py is this?

i noticed that your form's action attribute is absolute, not relative, ie it 
has the full domain:

   <form method="post" action="http://www.bagofspoons.net/cgi-bin/pyblosxom.cgi/News/20080217updates" accept-charset="UTF-8" ...

does it help if you change it to relative, ie just /cgi-bin/pyblosxom...?

no, it shouldn't.
